The Boxset (also referred to as Amon Tobin) is the 6-LP, 7-CD, 2-DVD compilation boxset by the Brazilian electronic musician Amon Tobin, released on 25 May 2012, on Ninja Tune. The Boxset includes Tobin's new music, along with his unreleased dubplates, earliest audio experiments, film and television scores, deleted bootlegs, remixes, cover versions and re-interpretations of Tobin's previous 2011 album ISAM , the ISAM live audio album and DVD, Tobin's remixes for other artists – as well as the recording of the November 2010 orchestrations of Tobin's music by The London Metropolitan Orchestra. [1]
The Boxset was released as a 4000-copies limited-edition, in the form of bolt-fastened mechanical press, made of a ½-inch medium-density fibreboard, designed by the design studio Oscar & Ewan, [2] and produced by the packaging production studio Think Tank. [3] The release contains 6 10" vinyls, 7 CDs, 2 DVDs, and posters. 10" sleeves, CD/DVD housing, and poster all have holes in the each corner which allow them to be passed on to the bolts. [4]
Most of the included material has not been released earlier on a physical format. Additionally, the set contains a registration information for further downloadable material "we couldn't fit in the box": ambient tracks, all material from the vinyl EPs, the score for the 2006 comedy-drama horror film Taxidermia , as well as the collection of ISAM remixes by Frank Riggio. [5]
Parallel to the release of the Boxset, in May 2012, Tobin performed tracks from ISAM and classic material in the audiovisual ISAM: Live show at the O2 Brixton Academy in London, and at the FutureEverything Festival in Manchester, after sold out shows at the Roundhouse and London Forum, which featured visual backdrops by V Squared Labs.

Boxcutter is the pseudonym for Barry Lynn, an electronic musician from Northern Ireland.

The second Boxcutter album Glyphic was more influenced by classic dub music such as King Tubby, but also drew comparisons to artists such as Squarepusher, Foul Play and Seefeel, and continued Lynn's reputation for working outside of conventions and taking a genre-hopping approach. In 2009, Lynn released the SETI-themed album Arecibo Message. In the same year, he also founded the Kinnego Records label, on which he released a collaboration with Kinnego Flux featuring artwork by London designers La Boca, and the first vinyl single by Space Dimension Controller.
