Warp is ten years old this year and as rumoured we are planning some extra 
special birthday releases and some top live nights for Octoberish:

Influences - A compilation of tracks that moved people in Sheffield 10 years 
or so ago, and inspired Rob and Steve to start Warp as a record label. It's 
basically a compilation of top tunes. Old gits can sigh reflectively and go 
"back in the day" a lot while listening/rushing to it and pimply youngsters 
will go "i wish people made music like this nowadays". Or something.

Classics - A compilation of all the best old Warp tunes (taken from WAP1-20) 
on 2 CDs and four 12"s cut loud. Tracks like "LFO", "Dextrous", "Track With 
No Name", "Hey Hey! Can U Relate?" "I'm For Real" etc.

Remixes - We got a load of our favorite artists that aren't signed to warp 
and some of our own crew to remix whatever they wanted from the Warp 
archive... Some interesting choices - here's the list of remixers, you'll 
have wait to see what they mixed though :), again it's a 2CD job and four 
pieces of vinyl in a lush box.

Andy Votel, Autechre, Bogdan Raczynski, Ellis Island Sound, Four Tet, Isan, 
Jim O'Rourke, Jimi Tenor, John McEntire, Labradford, Luke Vibert, Mira 
Calix, Mogwai, Oval, Plaid, Plone, Pram, Push Button Objects, Red Snapper, 
Richard Devine, Stereolab, Surgeon, To Rococo Rot, Underdog, Winston and 
Ross, Wunder.
