''26 Mixes for Cash'' is a compilation album of remixes produced by Richard D. James (better known by his recording alias of Aphex Twin) for various artists, plus four original tracks. It was released on 24 March 2003 by Warp Records. ''26 Mixes for Cash'' was released on CD only, although a vinyl promotional disc entitled ''2 Mixes on a 12" For Cash'', featuring the two Aphex Twin originals exclusive to this compilation, was released in limited quantities in Japan only. Along with the 22 remixes on this release, four original Aphex Twin tracks are also included. Two are new versions of previously released tracks: "Windowlicker, Acid Edit" and "SAW2 CD1 TRK2, Original Mix". The other two were previously available only on ''Further Down the Spiral'', the remix album by US industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails: "The Beauty of Being Numb Section B" and an edited version of "At the Heart of It All". In addition to the remixes featured on this release, James has also remixed tracks by Beck, DJ Pierre, and Soft Ballet, as well as additional remixes of tracks by Seefeel, Gavin Bryars, Jesus Jones, Saint Etienne, and Mescalinum United. Online orders of the compilation through Warp Records came with two silver-wrapped chocolate coins, featuring the Aphex Twin logo on one side and Richard's profile on the other (with "ELECTRONICA REX" written alongside it). In the comments of a song he had posted on SoundCloud, Richard James said the album was not named "26 Mixes for Cash" out of sarcasm like most people perceive, but rather because he exchanged the DATs for cash rather than with credit/debit cards, so that the record companies wouldn't know his bank account details or address. He also stated that it wasn't named by him, but rather by the late Warp Records co-founder Rob Mitchell.〔(RichardDJames SoundCloud comments )〕 ==Critical reception== ''26 Mixes for Cash'' generally received positive reviews. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「26 Mixes for Cash」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
