专辑简介
With its debut release, New Orleans-based Tangle Eye brings a fresh approach to the art of the remix, creating music, beats and sounds that bring new light to original vocal performances sampled from Alan Lomax's Southern Journey field recordings. A few years ago, the word "remix" most likely would have indicated a club version of a pop hit, strictly meant for dancing. However, such recent recordings as Verve Remixed and Bird Up: The Charlie Parker Remix Project has established the remix genre as a creative new music style with seemingly boundless possibilities. There's a difference, however, in Tangle Eye's approach, for their music is ultimately about the voices sampled. It can be astonishing to hear the raw beauty and passion of these voices, most of which were original a cappella performances, in the new settings created by Tangle Eye. Contributing contemporary musicians include Meters bassist George Porter, Jr., Galactic guitarist Jeff Raines, pianist Henry Butler, old-time fiddler Dirk Powell, bluesman Corey Harris, keyboard work from Davell Crawford, trombonist Delfeayo Marsalis and bluegrass Dobro virtuoso Rob Ickes.
