Wrangler - Sparked Modular Remix Project - [Vinyl]

Wrangler's new remix album features 11 modular synthesizer re-workings of tracks from their 2014 debut album, LA Spark. Featuring remixes by the likes of Mute founder & The Normal's Daniel Miller, Chris Carter from Chris & 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: 'Wrangler 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. We've approached you because we admire your passion and commitment to electronic music, and we hope you will be interested in taking part.' The result is an album which flows across four sides of vinyl, from the locked down electro-dancefloor rhythm of Daniel Miller's Theme From Wrangler , through the darker, brutalist shapes of Chris Carter's eight minute Lava Land opus and into schizo-synth pop (Dean Honer I Monster, Eccentronic Research Council), abstract ambient beauty (Alessandro Cortini), dark dub (Solvent) and finally the brooding 14 minute masterpiece of Wrangler's own remix, Theme Meme . Wrangler are Stephen Mallinder (ex-Cabaret Voltaire), Benge (best known for his album 20 Systems and John Foxx And The Maths) and Phil Winter (Tunng). Their debut LP, LA Spark was described by Q Magazine as 'creepy and brilliant, music you can dance to while looking over your shoulder. The best kind of music.' According to UNCUT, 'LA Spark is a compelling listen with former Cabs vocalist sneering on the imperious title track. He's still got it.' 01 - Abul Mogard - Mus IIC 02 - Daniel Miller - Theme From Wrangler 03 - Steve Moore Harder 04 - Scanner - LA Spark 05 - Chris Carter - Lava Land 06 - Dean Honer - Space Ace 07 - Alessandro Cortini - Modern World 08 - Benge - Peace & Love 09 - Solvent Harder 10 - David Burraston - Mus IIC 11 Wrangler - Theme Meme
