Squarepusher, Tim Hecker, and More Rework Michael Gordon
'Timber Remixed' is out October 28 on Cantaloupe Music.
On October 28 Cantaloupe Music will release a collection of remixes of “Timber,” a composition for six wooden 2-by-4s by Michael Gordon.
When Michael Gordon’s “Timber” premiered in 2009, it raised the bar for percussion performance. Now, newly recorded by Mantra Percussion and reworked by a number of producers, Gordon’s deep exploration into the possibilities of rhythm gets the full electronic treatment on Timber Remixed.
The release features the studio touches of Squarepusher, Oneohtrix Point Never, Tim Hecker, Hauschka, Johann Johannsson, Ikue Mori, and many more.
The double-CD set includes Mantra’s live performance of “Timber.”
