Available here is a 12" vinyl record by Aphex Twin - Windowlicker. It’s a white label promo, so accompanying information about the record is limited or derived from research. The regular releases were issued in the UK by Warp Records in 1999.

Identifiers - This record bears the following identifying marks, namely …
Matrix / Runout - Side A - Stamped - WAP 105 A-1-1-I - Etched - PAULS@PORKYS

Matrix / Runout - Side B - Stamped - WAP 105 B-1-1-I - Etched - PAULS:W12

One side of the record has a hand-written artist and title track, while the other side has random markings from what I assume to be the same pen or hand. Based on the standard releases for this item, the track listing will be …

A - Windowlicker - 6.06
B1 - N
∆Mᵢ⁻¹=−α ∑ Dᵢ[η][ ∑ Fjᵢ[η−1]+Fextᵢ [η⁻¹]]
η=1 j∈C{ᵢ} - 5.43
B2 - Nannou - 4.04

Vinyl Condition - Very Good+ - The record is very bright and clean and while the odd small surface mark may be noticed, there are no worrying scratches. There is a minor chip from the outer edge of the vinyl but as the run-in grooves start quite deep, it is not an issue. Having listened to both sides, I can confirm that there is no jumping, sticking with just the odd light click in evidence. Background crackle/noise is occasional and low-level when heard.

Sleeve Condition - Excellent - The record is housed in a plain white sleeve, with an additional plastic outer sleeve. Only light signs of wear will be found.

It is not my intention to profit from postage. If possible I use good clean recyclable material but I also buy bubble wrap, brown paper, packing tape and glue and all items are well wrapped and protected before posting. Items are also weighed and postage calculated before I list at auction and a small percentage of the charge does go towards packing costs. See About Me for further general despatch information.
