Love your mixes. Keep them coming!

I could be wrong, but are you sure about "#19" by Aphex Twin from Selected Ambient Works, Vol. II (Sire), Released April 12, 1994 (Start Time: 23:44)?

Can you re-check the track info ?

#19 is indeed (originally) from Selected Ambient Works Volume 2. I did a bit of research on it, because the tune is hard to come by. The reason being that it was released on cassette and vinyl only (although some digital versions exist, obviously, and it has been used in a number of other things). It has also been called 'Stone In Focus', due to its association with that particular image (each song had an image that it was associated with).

According to Wikipedia (which NEVER lies, ha!):
'Due to the limitations of the compact disc format, track 19 was removed from all CD pressings. This omission has since become standard, even for online retailers. The track was later included on the Astralwerks/Caroline/Virgin/EMI Records compilation Excursions in Ambience: The Third Dimension, titled "#19".'

Happy to present you with the tune. I have a bit more if his stuff and will be using something probably for the next mix. Cheers!
