AFX - Hangable Auto Bulb (2 EPs)

These two EPs, released 8 weeks apart in 1995 and limited to 1000 copies each, mark a significant change in Richard D. James's style from the analogue and ambient sounds of his old releases to the new IDM and Drill n' Bass style he's been working in up until the rebirth of his classic acid style with the Analord series of singles. These two vinyl-only EPs were re-released together on a single CD last October, though the track times differ slightly between the vinyl and CD releases. In case anyone cares, these are the vinyl versions of all the songs. Track two on Hangable Auto Bulb 2, "Arched Maid Via RDJ", is one of my favorite songs ever.
