intro
Striking collection of remixes on download only EP by other artists of electronic project, the Sone Institute
Four remixes of tracks by the Sone Institute have been made available as a download. First it's Dollboy's musical tuning, behind which 'Jerusalem' is recited quietly in the background. This seamlessly develops into a spooky guitar composition, as if coming from an indie abbey. His playful de-compositioning throws in exotic and homemade effects Nick Rundall's tender remix of 'Tradition & Dream' brings in lounging post hippie loveliness, and has a rather suspicious Christmas muzak touch. There are plenty of gloomy atmospherics next, from the too appropriately named the Doomed Bird of Providence who stretch 'Struck by a Rock' into a nearly drone-like soundscape. Today's master of tension in folktronica, Kemper Norton, reworks 'World is Still a Confusion'. Now a mistful whirlpool of abstract patterns, the track evokes a sense of majestic greyness, with haunting vapours of sound that whizz by like comets in a universe.
