Classics is an electronic music compilation album by Richard D. James, more commonly known by his pseudonym of Aphex Twin(credited here as The Aphex Twin). The album was released in December 1994 (see 1994 in music).
The album consists of the Digeridoo and Xylem Tube EPs combined onto one CD with a handful of other songs. The album contains James' signature acid house sensibilities. It mostly features repetitive tracks performed on analogue synthesizers and drum machines, with some rather harsh-sounding remixes of Mescalinum United's "We Have Arrived". It was released by R&S Recordsfollowing James' success on Warp Records. The track "Phlange Phace" has the track "AFX 114" from another album "Compilation" in it.
A remastered version of the album was released on 2 June 2008. The cover for this reissue resembles that of Selected Ambient Works 85–92, albeit with the black and white inverted.
