Classics is a album that was put together by RDJ.... not the label. And yes.. it is VERY fucking good Id reccomend it to every AFX fan.

It's a compilation of all his "classic" tracks from the R&S days - things like the XYLEM tube EPs & Didge etc...pretty tough hard stuff if you are used to his SAWI work...
And yeah, it is a real classic!!!...

I'm pretty sure the tracks are compiled by R&S. Classics was released without the permission of Richard, i have read it in an interview many years ago.

It was released to cash in on the fact that none of his R&S singles were previously available on CD. Now as a result you see it in all major record shops, making R&S a packet in the process. Good compilation though (if you haven't already got them!)

As I supposed. Infact the compilation dates back to 1994(!?) but in that period he had already moved to warp...

It was released after rdj left R&S...those trax were released on R&S so they could do what they liked with em, I guess..depending on contracts etc...
I guess rdj couldn't care less tho...I imagine his money from WARP more than covered any displeasure at R&S...(who were a rocking label...)..
Anyone know any news on Rennaat & Sabine?...

classics are very underrated. The three tracks Nacmat mentioned are great. And then there are dodeccaheedron, metapharstic, phloam....
A must have for any aphex fan who goes beyond his well-known works like RDJ album, windowlicker, come to daddy etc.

Yes, you are in right. The reason that this album is so underrated is that it is very hard to get into. The music is also very brutal. Absolute genious noise bye the way!
