.. Pluramon: bit sand riders remix cd (Mille Plateaux)
A solid remix album following up on the Formant remix 12" that came out on Mille Plateaux earlier this year. But this album is more of a downtempo listening affair as opposed to the more floor-friend Formant remix 12". The marriage of Pluramon's tranquil guitar-based journeys with some of today's most innovative electronic producers creates some very entertaining and listenable results (with the exception of the Merzbow remix but you know what to expect from him - noise!). If you have an aversion to guitars then avoid this release, but if guitars & electronics dont frighten you then you'll find this remix album very rewarding. Recommended!
