In a move that surprises exactly no one familiar with Richard D. James' eclectic universe, the electronic music pioneer better known as Aphex Twin has unleashed a characteristically unconventional offering: a massive selection of 191 tracks for streetwear giant Supreme.
Titled with quintessential Aphex understatement as "Aphex Twin: [mostly mellow]," the collection represents a rare glimpse into the listening habits of electronic music's most enigmatic figure. From Brian Eno's ambient explorations to Kraftwerk's mechanical precision to Run-DMC's revolutionary hip-hop, the playlist mirrors the same boundary-dissolving spirit that marks James' own deeply influential productions.
In a classically self-referential twist, James included one of his own tracks, 2015's "XMAS_EVET1N" among the selections. Other trailblazing artists to appear include Burial, Ragga Twins, Squarepusher and The Beach Boys, among many others.
