London Sinfonietta - Warp Works (2006) (@256)












Let's put another one in the series of the Warp tribute. This time, a very interesting project: Between 2003 and 2005, the London Sinfonietta gave a number of performances where they presented their own version on a number of compositions of Warp label artists (Aphex Twin and Squarepusher) and of some of the most important avant-garde artists of the 20th century. Their aim was to explore the connection between these two sides since the former are considered the developers of what the latter had started. Here, since the tribute is for Warp, I've chosen to separate the two sides and to upload only the Warp related part of this release. Even under this case, the classical perspective on top-rated electronic music is definitely intriguing.

Tracklisting:
Clive Williamson - Jynweythek (Prepared Piano Piece 1) (Aphex Twin)
Clive Williamson - Hy A Scullyas Lyf Adhagrow (Prepared Piano Piece 2) (Aphex Twin)
