I'm pleased to announce the imminent release of Internal Return Remixed, available on CD and d/l via Bandcamp, as
well as on streaming services starting January 4, 2024. This album is a collection of 5 alternative timeline anagrammatic
reworks of tracks from my album, Internal Return.
Rafael Anton Irisarri presents Ruckkehr (Irisarri Resurging Earthquake Mix). In this mix, Irisarri transmutes the
piano motif of the original into an intense, quaking avalanche of resonances.
My own contribution, Shûb (NER Shimmering Numb Nimbus Mix), interrogates the temporal in-betweens of the
music, revealing new angles and approaches to the piece’s architecture.
Siavash Amini offers Cohen (Siavash Amini Harmonic Shiva Nexus Mix). Siavash reinterprets a key album track,
digging in to Jarboe’s ethereal vocals, and in doing so, uncovers completely new structures within the music.
My Olah (NER Exhale Anomaly Mix) is a pared-back, keening woodwind exhalation, a slow-motion klezmer raga that
offers a contrasting perspective to the original track, focusing on its meditative in-betweens.
Lastly, Locrian’s Terence Hannum delivers Immer Besser (Terence Hannum Inner Hex Ember Mix). His version
confronts us as an immense, suffocating, and impenetrable wall of sound - providing a devastating contrast to the
euphoric release of the original.
The process of relinquishing control to these three incredible musicians was both humbling and invigorating. What
they did with my raw materials was truly a revelation. I cannot wait for this music to be wild in the world.
Love,
Nicol
