The CD edition features a mix of the albums opening track ‘Harmony Korine’ by David A. Sitek, currently enjoying massive critical acclaim for the new TV ON THE RADIO album. It also features mixes of tracks by ENGINEERS, Pat Mastelotto (KING CRIMSON) and FEAR FALLS BURNING.

A digital edition will also be available which will collects all six tracks available on the CD and 12”. The digital version will also feature the winner of the remix competition which has been running on the Insurgentes mini-site.

Gimmicky, you say? Feels like filler, you say? Well, I may have to agree with you. But we’ve both been wrong before. Go to the site and check out the tracks. Wilson’s not in the habit of putting out hollow music. My guess: we’ll both reluctantly play the samples when we’ve got nothing else to do, cross our arms, then be pleasantly surprised.
