In other news, Aphex Twin released a limited edition run of 12" vinyls to mark his headline performance at Field Day over the weekend - and they're already appearing online for a lot of money.

The Field Day-special 5-track vinyls were limited to a run of 100 copies and had sold out before the day had barely begun. They began to surface online not long after for hundreds of pounds higher than the original £5 asking price.

Aphex Twin released a similar limited edition vinyl when he headlined the festival back in 2017 - and they were just as hard to get a hold of back then.

One listing on eBay for the 2023 version is asking for £799, while a bidding war taking place on another listing currently sits at £520 with 5 bidders.
