yeah Warner (Japan) wanted to do a special aphex thing and this is
what they requested, a singles compilation, richard chose the tracks,
some of which (ventolin ones) were harddisk edited to fit in with
things, so they sound quite different out of the ventolin context, the
respect list is the one from ventolin so it's nothing new, DR did some
artwork for it btw :
::: aphex twin
::: aphex singles collection
