ウィンブルドンにて70年代から宅録で音楽を制作し続けるカルト宅録兄弟Wooの昨年リリースした音源を Other Lands & Linkwood / Leeway / Tagliabue Evasioがリミックス。
Track List
Following the partnership between Altrimenti and Quindi for a suite of remixes of Cabaret du Ciel, the two Italian labels collaborate once again to explore three vivid versions of tracks from Woo's exquisite album Paradise In Pimlico. The verdant, delicate musicality of Woo's original material offers an abundance of riches for remixers, and the results are true to Altrimenti's stated purpose to explore and experiment in the fusion of different approaches to electronic music.
On the A side, Joseph Tagliabue offers up a snaking, psychedelically charged dancefloor vision of 'Cadenza d'Innocenza'. Milan-based Tagliabue has developed a potent sonic signature across releases for labels like Invisible Inc. and Sound Metaphors before starting his own Blue Sea Studio as an outlet for his expanding work into the field of contemporary soundtracks. That cinematic sensibility comes through in waves on this subtly trance-licked epic - a soaring set piece for the most dramatic of party situations.
On the B side, Leeway opens proceedings with his remix of 'Even More Notes'. As the founder of Wain Records and the Scram club night, the London-based producer is fostering a culture of leftfield dance music with an organic sensibility. On his interpretation of Woo, he offers up a more experimental, dub-informed strain of 4/4 club rhythms.
Completing the set, Other Lands & Linkwood join forces for their approach to 'Gold Star'. Other Lands is also known as Fudge Fingas, and alongside Linkwood he helped shape the warm, deeply rooted house sound of seminal label Firecracker Recordings. The duo's affinity for soulful musicianship and the disco roots of house music comes through in this spiralling, hazy rendition perfectly pitched at moments when a softer, more spiritual approach is needed without losing the guidance of an insistent groove.
Once again the overarching theme on this collection of remixes remains quality - a pursuit of meaningful expression, originality and open-hearted musicality. From the source material to the resulting remixes, the pursuit was a successful one.

南ロンドンのウィンブルドンにて70年代から宅録で音楽を制作し続け、近年〈Drag City〉や〈Emotional Rescue〉から、80年代、90年代の音源がリイシューされ、 Nite JewelやSeahawksともコラヴォレーション、〈Palto Flats〉や〈Yoga Records〉から新作を発表するなどアンビエント、宅録音楽ファンにカルト的な人気を得ているWooの2022年のアルバム「Paradise in Pimlico」のリミックス。〈Athen Of The North〉からのリリースでも人気を博すFUDGE FINGASの変名Other Landsと盟友Linkwoodによるリミックスも嬉しい。ブレイクステップ、多層に音が展開してアンサンブルになっていく、ミュージカルな素晴らしいリミックス。バイナルオンリー。 (サイトウ)
