Alarm Will Sound performs Aphex Twin: Acoustica
Cantaloupe Music (CA21028)
http://www.cantaloupemusic.com/
The long-awaited followup to their acclaimed all-Steve Reich debut,
ALARM WILL SOUND (http://www.alarmwillsound.com/), the young 22-piece
new music band featuring voices, strings, brass, woodwinds, and
percussionists, takes on APHEX TWIN in ACOUSTICA.
Alarm Will Sound, who the NY Times calls "the future of classical
music," has, with a cadre of 10 arrangers, painstakingly recreated and
rethought 13 tracks from the Aphex Twin catalog for an all-acoustic
ensemble. From creative new transcription ideas to using non-standard
"classical music" instruments to ensuring that all four drummers are
kept busy with Aphex Twin's unimaginably intricate beats, this sounds
like no CD you've heard before. With 2 bonus remixes of the remixes by
Dennis DeSantis.
