Greetings & welcome to our new blog. We plan to use this space as an outlet for mixes, remixes, home recordings, found sounds, musical ponderings & whatever else takes our fancy. Here's hoping we can keep it updated pretty regularly & keep the tumbleweed at bay.We're very excited about our first post. We've asked a bunch of our favourite Irish artists to remix tracks from our debut album & will be making the results available for free download & streaming as a series of virtual 7"s over the coming months. The first offering features what we feel are a gorgeous pair of remixes by Strands & St. Catherine's Home for Lazy Infants. Strands is the brand new project from Stephen Shannon. Steve will be familiar to many as a member of Halfset as well as for his production work on a host of celebrated Irish albums in recent years. The debut Strands album is due in the second half of 2010 & on the evidence of this mix we're very much looking forward to hearing it.
St. Catherine's Home for Lazy Infants is the work of Alex Synge. The debut SCHFLI album 'Old Ghosts', was released last year on the excellent Slow Loris label & blew us away. If you dig the like of Fripp & Eno's 'Evening Star', you should definitely check this one out. We still haven't met Alex but when we do the pints will be on us for contributing such a beautiful mix. Both tracks are available for free download here or can be streamed below. Hope you enjoy them. Muchos gracias to Stephen & Alex for contributing their time & talent.
Both tracks were mastered by Richard Dowling at WAV Mastering.
