What is it about remix CDs? Some of my favourite albums of recent years have been remix and b-side albums. Bonobo’s for example. Or Quantic’s. Not forgetting the recent Fragile State beauty! This one looks to be no different. Bought in FOPP. I ♥ you FOPP.

Husky Rescue - Other World: Remixes and Rarities

Review

If you already own more than one Husky Rescue album (aka - both of them!) then you really need to check this one out. Just like Bonobo’s ‘one off remixes & b-sides’ this is a collection of remixes by Husky Rescue, and remixes of Husky Rescue - along with a few acoustic versions of some of their tunes and even some new unreleased tracks. Although it’s essentially a collection of tracks it holds together really well as an album and is perfectly listenable all the way through just like the 3rd Husky Rescue album.

In time honoured Husky Rescue fashion - this album has a magical floaty quality to it over a dark and brooding tunes which combine to give a very atmospheric but entirely listenable sound which is their own. Stand out tracks include the Bonobo mix of ‘new light of tomorrow’, the new tune Last Dance.
