GAK is an
EP by
Richard D. James (
Aphex Twin) released in 1994 under the one off
moniker "GAK". The record is sourced from demos Richard D. James sent to Warp Records in 1990 prior to his signing. The album is rumored to be an imitation of the classic Warp artist
LFO. James recorded the songs possibly around 1989–1990.
GAK 1 Is an example of early techno, mainly structured around a repetitive
CR-78 pattern with a piano melody. GAK 2 is similar but has a more ambient techno sound than any other tracks on the E.P. GAK 3, however is a much darker, track with racing synths and a hard 4–4 beat, one of James' attempts to create a more rave type of sound. This album was released both in
CDdigital and
12" formats. The cover artwork features GAK written on the top and the
Warp logo at the bottom on a purple background. The cover artwork is by
The Designers Republic.[2]
