Review: All Saints are simply a sublime imprint. From Brian Eno to the latest Jon Hassell compilation, they've always got something up their sleeve. This time it's two prime reworks from Peaking Lights and our man Jamal Moss who remix the legendary Roedelius, and it doesn't get much better than this. The former transforms "Puente" into a wacky, dubbed-out monster, while Hieroglyphic Being goes almost balearic on his transformation of "Remember".

Review: Examining seminal ambient works from Harold Budd via his work on All Saints, this remix package brings a wisely curated host of modern artists in to deliver their own strung out tributes to an influential contemporary of Brian Eno et al. Patten takes to "Mandan" with a slow rising spirituality, gently feeding in threads of percussion to merge with the thick slurry of synths, winding up with a very harmonious cacophony of sound. Odd Nosdam meanwhile turns to his usual arsenal of fuzzy drone business as he tackles "Feral", the pitch bends taking on a transcendental nature as they stretch out into the ether. M. Geddes Gengras' Personable project opts for a sprawling 20 minute version of "Dark Star" that uses the ample running time to unfold a story of high drama, tension and beauty that creates a mastery out of gently discordant melodies.
