Bleep

Lost Themes, John Carpenter’s debut album of original material, gets remixed by eight contemporary electronic musicians at the top of their game. Dominic Fernow of Prurient does a minimalist rework of ‘Purgatory’, while Zola Jesus teams up with “Big” Dean Hurley (engineer to David Lynch) for a lo-fi pop reimagining of ‘Night’. ohGr of industrial music pioneers Skinny Puppy takes ‘Wraith’ into glitchy IDM territory, while PAN label boss Bill Kouligas completely deconstructs the source material on his mix of ‘Fallen’. Silent Servant, Fuck Buttons member Blanck Mass, and revolutionary composer/producer J.G. Thirlwell all make further appearances. Several of these remixes appeared on the digital deluxe edition of Lost Themes, but this release marks the first time they have been made available on vinyl.
