Extravagantly opaque, willfully vaporous - Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works Volume II, released by the estimable British label Warp Records in 1994, rejuvenated ambient music for the Internet Age that was just dawning. In the United States, it was Richard D. James's first full length on Sire Records (home to Madonna and Depeche Mode) under the moniker Aphex Twin; Sire helped usher him in as a major force in music, electronic or otherwise. Faithful to Brian Eno's definition of ambient music, Selected Ambient Works Volume II was intentionally functional: it furnished chill out rooms, the sanctuaries amid intense raves.

Simultaneously, 'ambient' has moved from esoteric sound art to central tenet of online culture. This book contends that despite a reputation for being beatless, the album exudes percussive curiosity, providing a sonic metaphor for our technologically mediated era of countless synchronized nanosecond metronomes.… (more)

Would have enjoyed a bit more inside baseball on the album itself, but the focus on context and influence was illuminating. Like a great set of liner notes, this book sent me in a dozen directions seeking out new-to-me albums, books, and more. ( )

Unfortunately a missed opportunity on the biographical, musical, and sociocultural tip. Invests too much writing on audience reaction and comes off as needlessly defensive. ( )
