Pulled out my "Artificial Intelligence II" compilation on Warp the other
night to hear some of the Global Communication (man do I miss them!!) and
Beaumont Hannant tracks. While looking over the liner notes, I noticed the
1994 copyright and had to think "WOW - 10 YEARS OLD, I remember when this
came out." In browsing the Warp website, I noticed that the release date
was May 30, 1994. So the release just had its birthday last week!
It's hard to believe I have been listening to this type of music for 10
years now. This was one of the first few IDM releases I purchased back in
1994 (Orbital's "Snivilization", Aphex Twin's "I Care...", Autechre's
"Basscadet"/"Anti" EPs, and Seefeel's "Starethrough" EP also come to mind).
It's also nice to see how well all the tracks on this compilation have stood
the test of time. The Autechre, Darrell Fitton, B12, and Link (and
basically all of them) still sound fresh today. Well done Warp!
