NSRGNTS RMXS

An overall beautiful collection of remixed already excellent Steven Wilson music. The remix of Harmony Korine is contrasted with the original as it is given a hip-hop feel by T.V. on the Radio's David A. Silek. I've never been a fan of track by track analysis. but the overall impression of this collection of remixes is a must have for any fan of Steven Wilson. If you have Insurgentes and enjoyed it, then it's safe to say you will thoroughly this collection of remixes. My personal favorite is track 5, the Lukasz Langa remix of Abandoner. This mix gives the song a distant worldly feel that would make the song at home in a dramatic independent film about long lost friends regaining friendship only to quickly lose it again. I've only just received this collection and have already listened to this mix 3 times, and I dare say I like it a tiny bit more than the original. Electronic fuzz ix replaced with a more prominent piano that tugs at your heart and leaves you wanting more. 4 stars. Recommended.
