Proud to announce the release of my project with the Afiara Quartet entitled "Spin Cycle". This project was produced over the last 8 months in collaboration with 4 Canadian composers (Laura Silberberg, Dinuk Wijeratne, Kevin Lau, Rob Teehan). Here's how it worked:

Phase 1: 4 composers wrote 4 original pieces for the Afiara String Quartet. Pieces were recorded.

Phase 2: Skratch Bastid remixed each of the pieces, using select parts that were replayed by the string quartet, sampled, and scratched. 

Phase 3: The 4 composers remixed the remixes by writing new pieces based on the remix. Skratch Bastid & Afiara Quartet performed these pieces live and recorded them. 

This track is Phase 3 of Laura Silberberg's piece, titled "Dirty Laundry - Heavy Load".
