The Story
I think we can all agree, "Windowlicker" is the closest thing Richard D. James has ever had to a true pop hit. And the hilarious, ambitious, game-changing video helmed by Chris Cunningham is as notorious as the tune itself. In fact, most people can't separate the two, but trust me, this does as much damage on a packed dancefloor as it did to your shermed-out melon watching it on MTV in your college dorm room. Warp keep repressing this, and for good reason. "Nannou" on the flip is a pensive slice of music box IDM. The second track reveals a portrait of RDJ's face when run through a logarithmic spectrogram and serves no other purpose, so you can skip. Full repro 2016 repress with iconic cover art, recommended.
