SQUAREPUSHER Presents "Selection Sixteen" Double LP and 10 inch on Warp (1999) WARPLP72

Overall Condition: VG+ (VG+/unsealed/Vinyl is NM+)

The jacket shows slight corner creases on the cover, but overall shows very little wear. It is pretty usual wear for a record stored among others on a shelf over a great period of time. The vinyl however appears immaculate, and retains the high gloss finish that distinguishes very near mint records.

Details: Once again, Warp provides a brilliant layout and packaging for Squarepusher's forth album, "Selection Sixteen". Released in 1999, the record reads a bit like outtakes from his previous effort "Music is Rotted One Note" which received great success with fans and critics. The double LP and 10 inch are housed in the cardstock textured jacket. The cover has a non-glossy, matte finish that if poorly handled shows smudges and fingerprints. This however is not the case, and the white boarder is in great condition on this copy. Both LPs are presented in plain white paper sleeves and the 10 inch in it's own sleeve with a layout similar to that of the album. Definitely a milemarker release of the "drill & bass" genre Squarepusher defined at the time.

From Allmusic.com: 

After releasing more than two hours worth of material in less than a year, Tom Jenkinson returned in late 1999 with what looked to be another full LP, comprising 17 tracks and clocking in at 45 minutes. In fact, it's regarded as a "mini-album" and plays the part well. Similar to the 1999 Squarepusher EPs Budakhan Mindphone and Maximum Priest, Selection Sixteen alternates what sounds like outtakes from his last LP (Music Is Rotted One Note) -- that is, short organic fusion cast-offs -- with a set of hard-edged acid tracks, most of which chart the hyperkinetic drum'n'bass programming that fans expect. The album comes off surprisingly well, given both the glut of Squarepusher material in 1999, and the fact that Jenkinson is mixing'n'matching crazed drill'n'bass and more stately jazz-fusion, with little regard for album flow. The highlight here, "Square Rave," takes a little bit from both camps and ends up sounding like Aphex Twin (circa Selected Ambient Works 85-92) if he'd been working with jungle breakbeats. In addition to the 13-track album are four remixes, including one on which Jenkinson recruits his brother Andy for remixing duties.
