Greatest Hit
“[An] info-blizzard. Frail, but tenacious.” —Pitchfork
Greatest Hit included in Wired’s Playlist for January, 2006
“The six tracks on this meta-mix were each made by smashing together the entire selection of songs from a different album. It turns everyone from the Rolling Stones to Kenny G into an eerily familiar cacophony.” Wired Magazine
This is a collection of single tracks composed from entire “Greatest Hits” albums. Ever imagine all 22 songs of The Carpenters’ 1968-1983 playing simultaneously? Now you don’t have to just imagine. Whitney Houston’s The Ballads starts sharing sonic space with Sainkho Namtchylak. Every track on The Police: Greatest Hits combines for a rhythmic freakout not unlike recent Boredoms. In this busy, hectic world, who has time for an entire album?
90% of this limited edition digipack is made from recovered album material.
