Description
This release is a double gatefold vinyl and limited to only 750 copies.Wranglerrsquos new remix album features 11 modular synthesizer reworkings of tracks from their 2014 debut album, LA Spark. Featuring remixes by the likes of Mute founder amp The Normalrsquos Daniel Miller, Chris Carter from Chris amp Cosey, Alessandro Cortini Nine Inch Nails and Scanner, all the artists were sent the same original proposal by Wrangler at the start of the project lsquoWrangler would like to ask you to submit an experimental piece of music for inclusion on an album entitled Modular Remix. The idea is very simple. We provide some basic stems from a track selected by you from our debut album LA Spark and you add whatever sounds you like the only rule being that you use just one analog modular synthesiser system of your choice. Weve approached you because we admire your passion and commitment to electronic music, and we hope you will be interested in taking part.rsquoThe result is an album which flows across four sides of vinyl, from the locked down electrodancefloor rhythm of Daniel Millerrsquos lsquoTheme From Wranglerrsquo, through the darker, brutalist shapes of Chris Carterrsquos eight minute lsquoLava Landrsquo opus and into schizosynth pop Dean Honer ndash I Monster, Eccentronic Research Council, abstract ambient beauty Alessandro Cortini, dark dub Solvent and finally the brooding 14 minute masterpiece of Wranglerrsquos own remix, lsquoTheme Memersquo.
