<p>Bogdan Raczynski is a Polish-American music producer who has been active since 1994. He gained recognition in 1999 when he signed with Rephlex, the label owned by renowned electronic musician Aphex Twin. Bogdan quickly released several albums and EPs, leading to his inclusion in the Rephlex All-Stars world tour. In 2007, he unveiled his sixth studio album "Alright!" on Rephlex before taking a twelve-year break due to a bass drum accident that temporarily affected his hearing. However, in 2019, Bogdan made a comeback with the release of "Rave 'Till You Cry," featuring old tracks from his Rephlex era. Since then, he has remained an active force in the music industry.</p>

 Mathematics strikes back! Reissue of the second of three albums released in 1999 for the Rephlex label, <i>Samurai Math Beats</i> exists somewhere between the outsider jungle mined by labelmates Aphex Twin and Squarepusher (dubbed “drill’n’bass”) and the sun-bleached public information music of Warp artists such as Plone and Boards Of Canada. Whilst many listeners at the time were left scratching their heads at the full on collision of hyperkinetic rhythms and arcade game melodies, in many ways the record pointed the way towards future musical mutations, from the frenetic BPMs of footwork to the deconstructed pop music of Mica Levi. Re-cut by Beau Thomas and available on vinyl for the first time since original release.
