Aphex Twin’s 2001 double album ‘Drukqs’ is receiving its first-ever vinyl reissue, bringing a long-unavailable release back to physical format. The reissue matters because the album is a major and unusually ambitious work in Richard D. James’s catalogue, blending abrasive electronic production with quieter piano-led pieces.

The original release was widely noted for its substantial length and two-disc format, and vinyl copies have become difficult to find. The announcement signals renewed availability for collectors and listeners, although the supplied article text does not provide further release-date, pricing or edition details.
