'A Perfect Solution', the latest album from Mesh, was surely one of the
highlight releases of recent years. The boys from Bristol showcased
both their club and alternative influences, creating a masterpiece
caught between accessible beauty and bitter melancholy. Up next is 'An
Alternative Solution', a remix album with several unusual
characteristics.
We didn't want to have big bands as remixers, but just friends we know
personally, and who we know like our music, and with whom we have a
relationship,says Mesh singer Mark Hockings. The status of the remixers
was secondary, the important thing was that the mixes were good. A
friend will do a better mix for you than someone who is just getting a
little cash for it.
The results speak for themselves, then many of the mixes stand up to
the original versions, without ripping the original song completely out
of its musical context. All eleven tracks from 'A Perfect Solution' get
the remix treatment here, and the remix album retains the originalÆs
track order as well. In spite of its unconventional approach, Mesh have
assembled an illustrious lineup of remixers from friendships built up
over the band's 15 year history, including Iris, Portion Control,
Zeromancer, Parallox, and Assemblage 23. Look for 'Alternative
Solution' in May 2011.
