ALEX ALBRECHT PRES. MELQUIADES - Excerpts (w/ Patrice Scott Remix) (Sealed) (12")

Alexander Albrecht returns to Francis Harris' Scissor & Thread imprint under his Melqu?­ades guise for the Excerpts EP. As with his previous release on the label, Blue Caves, the Melbourne producer delivers a rich and affecting release, blending genres and moods with ease. "The idea behind this EP", says Alex Albrecht, "was to capture moments and "excerpts" of my improvised live set. I've used field recordings from a number of places from around the world as inspiration (including my recent visit to New York for the last S&T Tour) for the individual tracks - there's a variety of genres within the release but essentially they were just improvised extended jam sessions. I then chose some interesting excerpts for the record.
