Ranked No. 3 in IDM
Two minutes of detuned warmth that has been imitated for twenty-five years without once being equalled. The whole nostalgic strand of electronic music descends from this specific tape hiss.

Picked by Warp
Two minutes of warmth on a roster known for the opposite, and the most widely loved record the label ever released. It moved Warp somewhere it had not been: melancholy, and legible to people who did not care about electronic music.
