Description
Twenty years later, amid the first national lockdown in England, Kev and PC decided to celebrate Kaleidoscope’s 20th anniversary by digging through their personal archives for material from the original recording sessions. They found more than they bargained for, compiling versions, alternate mixes, and unreleased ideas into a series of mixes that have now been further refined into the Kaleidoscope Companion and presented alongside the original album on quadruple vinyl.
Opener ‘The Ents Go To War’ with its brooding arrangement and heavy drums feels stunningly current, as does the hypnotizing dance between bassline and snare on ‘Skylark’ or the fidgety percussion and airy synthesizers of ‘Zoom Zoom’. Sonically, at least, DJ Food’s vision of the future wasn’t that far off and as Kev remarked when they first released the mixes some of these tracks “should have never been left in a drawer for two decades.”
