{"product_id":"aphex-twin_xylem-tube-ep_2025_lba","title":"XYLEM TUBE EP","description":"Aphex Twin's \"Xylem Tube\" EP was released in the summer of 1992 on R\u0026S Records, just months after his iconic \"Digeridoo\" single, and was a bold extension of the 21-year-old Richard D. James's work. Unavailable for nearly two decades, this highly anticipated vinyl reissue allows listeners to rediscover one of the essential early milestones in his discography. While \"Digeridoo\" pushed the endurance limits of dancefloors, the \"Xylem Tube\" EP expanded Aphex Twin's sound into new dimensions. The track \"Polynomial-C\" became a timeless classic thanks to its spiraling arpeggios, shattering breakbeats, and extraterrestrial melodies. Tracks like \"Phlange Phace\" and \"Tamphex (Hedphuq Mix)\" explore distortion, humor, and rhythm in new territories, while \"Dodeccaheedron\" boldly illustrates James's radical ideas of what dance music can sound like, with its dark, unsettling synths layered over a cacophony of fractured, strange beats. Three decades later, this EP remains not only a key chapter in the Aphex Twin canon but also a statement of intent from an artist determined to reshape the DNA of electronic music. One of Aphex Twin's most sought-after R\u0026S releases.","brand":"Aphex Twin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55817322627416,"sku":null,"price":20251010.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0199538225303.jpg?v=1760467154","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/aphex-twin_xylem-tube-ep_2025_lba","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
