     As `nimu-e' mentioned, it was the remix of "Icct Hedral" on the
_Donkey Rhubarb_ ep.  There is also a remix RDJ did for Phillip Glass for
his _"Heroes" Symphony_ full length.  Basically RDJ took Glass'
(instrumental) orchestrated version of the song, "Heroes", added the
original David Bowie vocals, and fucked with it a la the Aphex Twin remix
of Nobukazu Takemura's "Let My Fish Loose".  Beautiful.  Yeah I said
beautiful... am I the only one who digs this remix?

     Anyway, it's important to note that this remix was available only with
the Japanese version of this album as an accompanying 3" cd.  For more
detailed info on these, check out the `singles' and `remixes' section of
the Aphex Twin discography:
