Mike and Rich. "Expert knob twiddlers"
Bought this today to complete my Mu-ziq/Aphex collections, and it's fucking awful. I was expecting 10 tracks of groundbreaking drill and bass madness. Why Rephlex bothered releasing this turd of an album I'll never know.

Sorry this time you're wrong.
How about " Mr. Frosty" the first track?

It's just awful novelty music. Mr Frost is the least shit I suppose. The sound quality is awful too.

Jesus, even Richard James himself said it was poor because they were both pised and drugged u when they made it. If you had just read a little before blindly buying.

I would have thought the fact that it didn't contain oxymoronic "groundbreaking drill and bass" would have been a blessed fucking relief. I like "Expert knob twiddlers" because it sounds like it was recorded onto a extra cheap C-120 tape that'd been left on Dicky's radiator ALL winter.

Not oxymoronic in 1996. Obviously now it's gotten old.

It wasn't a novelty in 1996, it was cutting edge. This is the year "To cure a weakling child" came out.

I'll agree with that. The style would have been very interesting back then...
