Hundreds - Variations - LP
Hundreds - Variations - LP
"Variations" is a beautiful album, gripping in many ways. It's a motto mixtape, spinning its red thread all over the musical spectrum. Folk and indie rock, dance floor fodder and kitchen experiments are perfectly combined, creating almost seamless transitions. All contributors find ways to integrate parts of Hundreds' catalog into their cosmos, and find words for the audacious beauty of these songs, side-stepping all the usual remix and tribute routine.
There are no favorites: The soft wide-screen folk of Small Panthers, the flirtatious cool of Bodi Bill, the forest puppetry of Architecture In Helsinki's side project Sheahan Drive, the heart-cracking beauty of Einar Stray, the coveremix ballett of Get Well Soon - they all take the music, the songs the Milners have lovingly sent into concert halls and living-rooms in the past months, by its hand and take it back to the world's most beautiful place: Home. Here, it can rest , it can renew and rediscover itself, before it sets out anew - rebuilt and breathtakingly beautiful - to conquer more worlds in the months and years to come.
These copies are leftovers from the long gone, sold out initial pressing. Black vinyl with full-coloured labels, delivered in a plain black EP sleeve.
