01 | Envelope: g-man |
"Oscillating", Immersion's first release on Swim, attracted a wide cross
section of admirers, who raved about its almost beatless, electronic
strangeness . As a result, Immersion, who aren't very interested in
promoting themselves, suggested that we try to contact contemporary
musicians and producers who were interested in remixing the band, with
instructions to cast the net as wide as possible. So many people agreed
that the project now includes monthly vinyl releases, with three already
out, and at least 2 CD compilations. 'Full Immersion', the first CD
release, combines the first two month's releases and features mixes by Mark
Gage, Intens,Trawl, Craig Wharton, Fred Giannelli, Iris, Claude Young and
Mick Harris. It also features two bonus tracks by g-man and Immersion
themselves. Of those on the first 12-inch, Gage is the man behind the
increasingly successful Vapourspace (the music, not the London club) &
Cusp, Intens is Swim's in-house mixing team, Trawl is one Robin Rimbaud
(best known for his Scanning activities and monthly club nights at London's
ICA), while Wharton is a good mate of Gage's who has been dabbling with
electronic music for the last decade. Mixers from the second 12-inch range
from Giannelli, a one time member of Psychic TV, who runs his own
Telepathic label in Boston and a contractually unidentifiable Iris through
to Young, a Detroit D.J. who records for Utensil and is best known for his
frantic mixing style and ex-Napalm Death, Lull and probably Scorn mainstay
Harris. Bonus mixers g-man and Immersion, who surely need no
introduction, are included to add extra value.
