Leyland Kirby, Moon Wiring Club and I were recently invited by Domino records to remix tracks from the current album If... by Bill Ryder-Jones.
Performed by the Liverpool Philharmonic and various guests its the first solo album for the ex Coral guitarist turned composer and is conceived of as a soundtrack to Italo Calvino's novel If On A Winter’s Night A Traveller.
Domino say "Grand orchestral movements sit side by side with stark, nakedly emotional vocal pieces that weave a a bleak but beautifully moving and always visceral narrative." The three remixes here represent very different approaches to the source material by three artists that like Ryder-Jones share an interest in memory and the uncanny.

Really nice remix, Rev. Jupp!
ReplyDeletewill these be available in a physical format?
ReplyDeleteLove the remixes! Unfortunately, I can't seem to buy them due to not being in the UK. Do you know of any alternatives?
ReplyDeleteDigga - not sure if Domino will be putting out a physical version yet, I was told originally they intended to do a 12". So fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteAndrew - as far as I know they're on the itunes store, certainly in the UK anyway. If not you can find the download single at Domino Records here http://digital.dominorecordco.com/search/release.php?RELEASE_ID=2807
