Expanses + Remixes by The Green Kingdom
Expanses re-issue expanded with 10 gorgeous remixes.
"As mentioned in the original write-up, Expanses was my homage to classic ambient and ambient techno albums of the past, albeit passed through the filter of dusty samples from old vinyl and classical records, the odd guitar melody, electronics and some soft rhythmic pulses. Since its release, the album has taken on a life of it's own and also unexpectedly reached many more ears than I could have ever expected through some particularly fortuitous circumstances. It's a slightly otherworldly, mysterious album within the TGK oeuvre that somehow continues to work it's magic. I am very excited to now have the album back in print with a bonus album of incredibly creative and diverse mixes from some very talented artists, each of whom weave their own unique soundworlds. I hope these sounds can bring some peaceful moments spent within your personal expanses, whether real and imagined".
