NSRGNTS RMXS

Insurgentes, the debut album from Steven Wilson, was released in 2009 on Kscope. The album immediately received a rapturous reception from not just fans and critics but also from fellow artists. Several of these artists have remixed tracks from the album and NSRGNTS RMXS is a collection of some of these remixes. This edition of NSRGNTS RMXS opens with a mix of Harmony Korine by David A. Sitek, who enjoyed massive critical acclaim for the TV On The Radio album. Underground hip-hop pioneers Dalek have created a dark, brooding mix of Get All You Deserve (think Massive Attack meets UNKLE). Engineers have brought their widescreen sound to Abandoner while Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson, XTC) has created a sprawling mix of Salvaging and drone act Fear Falls Burning have also reworked Get All You Deserve. The mini-album is completed by the winner of the remix competition which ran on the Insurgentes mini-site. The competition offered fans the chance to remix the Insurgentes track Abandoner. Steven listened to all the entries and whittled them down to a final eight mixes.
