Jon Hopkins släpper mixalbum.
Engelsmannen Jon Hopkins släpper mixalbum för skivbolaget LateNightTales. Skivbolaget har tidigare haft bland annat MGMT och Belle & Sebastian mixa sina favoritlåtar för dem. Bland spåren hittar vi bland annat Four Tet, Jónsi & Alex och Hopkins egna cover på Yeasayers I Remember. Albumet släpps den 1 mars, i pressmeddelandet skriver Hopkins,
”Putting this album together was a unique opportunity for me to present music that I have been listening to for years, free from the constraints of a club setting or from trying to stick to one genre. I chose tracks not just because they have been important to me but because of how they sit together, putting as much thought into the transitions and overall narrative as I did into the track choices. I mixed by key and by texture more than anything else, using original sound design, pivot notes, and often recording new synth or piano parts to link things together in a way that flows as naturally as possible. I hope you enjoy it.”
