10th Anniversary of Aphex Twin’s “Selected Ambient Works”
January 13th, 2004
10 years ago today, in January 1994, Aphex Twin released his double album “Selected Ambient Works 85-92″, which is considered one of the most influential ambient works of electronic music from the 90’s.
Released on the R&S label, “Selected Ambient Works 85-92″ is a collection of ambient electronic pieces that were allegedly recorded at home by a 14 year old Richard D. James, directly to cassette tape that was then chewed up by his cat.
In 1994 Aphex Twin released on the Warp label a sequel titled “Selected Ambient Works Vol 2″, which was another milestone in ambient and minimal electronic music from the 90’s.
