HVOB - Tender Skin (DJ Tennis Remix)

Here's Alex's and my oral history of this track..

Alex:  "The idea for ‘Eve’ came about from a short session in my studio where I sketched out some very rough 16 bar loops and sent them over to Max to play with, deliberately stopping myself from developing them too far at this stage in order to leave space the collaborative process to evolve."

Max:  "I almost un-wrote a track for this one. Alex started off with the main bulk of the ideas for the track, and I initially chopped it all back to a couple of key elements.   I then experimented with some FFT effects and building some chaotic randomising manipulations of the basic elements, and sliding drum rhythms so that one drum element would slip relative to another and then back in - all an attempt to generate some movement and variation from the simple building blocks."

Alex:   "It was interesting to hear the rough ideas I had created, developed in a totally different way to how they would have had I been writing the track by myself. Inspired by the new direction the track was going in - "

Max:  "I'd made a mess.  Alex helped tidy it all up and bring it enough back into line to work as a dancefloor track"

Alex:  "- I layered some more percussion hits and string textures.  We continued the process of sending stems back and forth, refining each others ideas as well and creating new ones until the track was ready."

Max:  "The quotient series has been a nice opportunity to experiment with new music outside of the restrictions of record labels and their need to sell product.  This freedom has left me open to put out a piano solo and feedback matrix, a 10 minute ambient to drum and bass glitch remix, a track scored to a video, a one off club collab and more - all projects that I wanted to try, and am glad I did, but that wouldn't easily fit into the usual EP/LP formats. 

It's been a sort of sketch and experiment project, much of it tied to the Emergence visual shows, where I've been experimenting with how I can perform music and visual in sync in a live format. "

Afro Celt Sound System - My Secret Bliss (Wintermute Remix)

Track taken from the album '30 - Real World At WOMAD' -

30 Real World at WOMAD is part of the Real World Gold series that's unearthed classic recordings from the label's vaults. And what treasure is being dusted off. Peter's quite correct when he talks of "so many of the world's great artists" passing through both organisations. From Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan to Afro Celt Sound System, Papa Wemba to the Blind Boys of Alabama, there have been so many fantastic records, so many unforgettable performances.

Afro Celt Sound System - Shadowman

Track taken form the album "Afro Celt Sound System – Volume 1: Sound Magic".  This album is now available as part of the Real World Gold series - http://realworldrecords.com/gold

From the moment they first informally congregated at the third and final Real World Recording Week in 1995, it was clear that the group of European and West African musicians who would later answer to the name Afro Celt Sound System would become one of Real World’s totemic acts who embodied the label’s border-less, restriction-free ways. When originally released in 1996, Sound Magic was a revelation, one that spliced together music from different continents, different traditions, different times, without losing a thing in translation. 
“An eye-opening, uplifting, musically innovative creation, a real all-rounder full of perpetual surprise” – Hot Press

2003's Seed marked out some clearly defined territory for one of Real World's totemic outfits. Now less reliant on beats and samples, the team put more stock in real instruments, a move born out of their experiences of playing live together.
