context_page_description: Expert Knob Twiddlers is a 1996 studio album by Mike Paradinas and Richard D. James. It was released in 1996 on Rephlex Records and credited to Mike & Rich.
  On 14 July 2016, Planet Mu announced that a reissued version would be released with seven bonus tracks in September 2016.
context_section_description: Expert Knob Twiddlers was released by Rephlex Records on June 24, 1996 on audio cassette, compact disc and vinyl. Paradinas felt the album should have been released as early as 1994, stating that "At that time, that style was something that no one else had done [...] It wasn't like anything anyone heard before really. By the time it did come out, a lot of things came out like Lisa Carbon Trio aka Lisa Carbon aka Lisa Carbon & Friends (band has albums on different listings) and there was a lot of revived interest in easy listening. Neither of us was prepared for it."
  On July 19 2016, the song "Vodka (Mix 2)" was released with the announcement of the album's 2016 reissue.
  The original version of this album was known by both Mike & Rich as just simply "Mike & Rich" and not "Expert Knob Twiddlers" which it is known by their fans.  When the reissue was released they eventually just listed it as "Expert Knob Twiddlers".
