Bleep.com sale of all Warp albums

Bleep.com is having a sale. Every album from Warp is $6.99 US during September. This is quite a deal. So, here's ten Warp classics to get you started.

LFO - Frequencies (1991) It's why the site's called bleep.
Polygon Window - Surfing On Sine Waves (1993) excellent early Aphex Twin.
Autechre - Amber (1994) Melodic, quirky, and deeply moving. It's their best album.
The Black Dog - Spanners (1995) Huge variety of tracks, and it all fits together.
Aphex Twin - I Care Because You Do (1995) Of all the Aphex Twin albums, this one fits together best as an album.
Various: Blech II Blechsdottir (1996) Megamix of Warp tracks.
Vincent Gallo: Recordings of Music For Film (2002) A collection of short, often beautiful tracks.
Squarepusher - Do You Know Squarepusher (2002) A very mature album. Though short, it's great.
Boards of Canada: The Campfire Headphase (2005) It all comes together for BoC.
Jamie Lidell: Multiply (2005) Soul, from an unexpected source.
