    Just beautiful, warm techno, an electronic world within your home to feel safe inside.

      Looks like my copy may be succumbing to 'disc-rot' on both discs.

        [Posted 2003, edited 2019]: The last 3 tracks are exclusive to the limited edition of artificial intelligence II. They are not released elsewhere, nor are they on the regular version of "artificial intelligence II". Furthermore another has pointed out to me that the very last track (by Scanner) is only included on the CD format (of the LTD releases).

        Darrell Fitton is Bola, and this was the first Bola track I ever heard. (His first release maybe?) I it being exemplary of the bleepy ambient chill-out music of the time, and it remains one of my all-time favorite Bola tracks. It has a pleasantly dated '94 feel to it.

        Polygon Window is of course Aphex Twin. This is a weird little track, presumably made of teapot sounds (though I can't make what sort of teapot sounds they could be). It's an interesting and original piece, and not danceable at all.

        This release is *essential* for the Aphex or Bola collector, as well as any collector who wants to own one of the most important records in the history of "electronic listening music" or "intelligent techno" (tragically later renamed IDM–I believe by a Wire magazine article but that's just a vague recollection). If you're lucky, you can find a copy of the limited version of the 2xCD in a record store at a reasonable price because often the record store folks don't realize there's a difference between it and the standard single CD version.
