26 Mixes for Cash shows the tremendous diversity of the Aphex Twin’s talent. The first disc focuses more on the kinder, gentler Twin, with more mid-tempo deconstructions. Right off the bat, the delicate layering of angelic voices and crunchy beats on the Seefeel and Gavin Bryars remixes. The Kinesthesia and Buck Tick remixes are more of the abstract IDM sound for which the Aphex Twin is known. Of special note on the first disc: the Nav Katze and Saint Etienne remixes. Also, try to identify any part of Jesus Jones that remained in the “Zeros and Ones” remix. You can play this game with any of the tracks. The second disc showcases the more frenetic and harsher Twin, though with the same creativity and sonic mayhem. Of particular note is the “SAW2 CD1 TRK2 (Original Mix)” Having heard the ambient version, it’s fascinating to hear the original as something that wouldn’t be out of place on the dancefloor. Some astounding work on display here.
