Photodementia - Fig. 3 (1997 -- Photodementia, 2012 Reissue) *320 + Flac

"Recently unearthed by the good folk at Rephlex, 'Photodementia' is an outstanding nugget of eight succinct and kinetic machine moves from late '90s Washington. Apparently a few white labels were distributed to Black Market in London and New York's Sonic Groove way back when, but they're that far off the radar even discogs hasn't heard of them. However, the press release reliably informs us that it's the work of Canadian-born Victor Beaudet "one time collaborator with Richard Davis of legendary band Cybertron" (sic) "and his partner, New Orleans' born Bernard Davies (R.I.P.)", so unless someone is telling porkies, this is quite a find. Essentially their sound is very similar to a number of classic projects from Drexciya to earlier AFX and the like - composed and structured with a free-flowing intuition and feel for that melancholic funk which is prized by so many nerds like you and I. Sterling stuff..."(Boomkat)

Dope reissue. I'm a bit of sucker for the electro. Has that Detroit sound, by way of mid-90's DC. This post is dedicated to my old friend Faso in BK. Thanks for the words, man! 320 vinyl rip by yours truly. FLAC is on the way, as soon as mediafire allows it. Enjoy.

(V/A) All-Vinyl, All Rephlex Mix by Jason Fellows [Pt.1]

Super-dope! My own former (and favorite) DJ partner- one Mr. Jason Fellows of Brooklyn, NY- has just upped a continuous all-vinyl mix of his own personal selections from Rephlex Records' fantastic back-catalog. This'll be part one, with something of an emphasis on their more oddball releases. Part two (forthcoming) will yield an increase in BPMs in order to incorporate what Jason calls "the classic sound". I also hear tell that Grant Wilson-Claridge has slated some new Rephlex releases for this year. Here's to hoping for some newly-classic cuts from the once-and-future kings of "braindance"...

AFX- Analord

Recently, Rephlex has released high-quality digital versions of the complete AFX Analord Series. This is exciting, as I have worn the rest of the Richard D. James catalog right into the ground, and was unable to secure any vinyl copies of this 11-record set at the time(s) they were released. Since I don't see any new Aphex on the horizon (or maybe ever), a proper digital release of this stuff is at least adequate consolation.

Music from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop

This is a great collection of vintage British radio soundtracks, bizarre melodies, synthesized atmospheres, tape loops and music concrete from the good folks at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Amassed onto two cds, this collection is ordered to follow the tracklist of Rephlex Records' uber-collectable 4-record set of the same name. Observe:
