Label:	HYDROGEN DUKEBOX (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	DUKE 112CD

"The first in a series of three remix projects involving Lee Norris, Rewired In My Manor sees Lee operating as Metamatics (parts two and three are under his Norken and Nacht Plank guises). What links these projects together is not only that they stem from the same person, but the fact that all three are reinterpretations of Lee's tracks done by artists that have found Lee through the internet. The result of brief conversations of appreciation and inspiration which developed into friendships and have now become regular brainstorms via the www.NeoOuija.co.uk chat room, those involved became part of the 'family' through sharing a common love for glitchy electronics and seductive, pulsing rhythms -- it is these parameters by which they have reinterpreted the Metamatics project. With the exception of two tracks taken from Metamatics most recent album, From Death To Passwords When You Are a Paper Aeroplane, the bulk of Rewired In My Manor started as one previously unreleased track, 'Pod'. All the remixers were given elements of the track via the internet, which they interpreted and sent back, also via the net. The result is a fusion of melody, clicky percussion and warm, blissful ambience, blending sounds that will in turn please the ear and assault the brain with the unexpected." Artists include: Yasume, Verbose, Ilkae, Sleepy Town Manufacture, ENV(itre), Sabi, Kero, Stars As Eyes, Kettel, Xela vs Aeiou, Bauri, and Mati:K. Limited stock.

Title:	Mind Mushing Git (Midnight Sun Pig)
Label:	HYDROGEN DUKEBOX (UK)
Format:	LP
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	DUKE 128LP

LP version. "The one-man multi-tasking musical machine known to his Mom as Lee Norris has found a hidden treasure: a new Metamatics album made before From Death To Passwords When You Are A Paper Aeroplane. Previously released only in Scandanavia and limited to 200 copies, Mind Mushing Git (Midnight Sun Pig) is now being given a proper release. If you've been following along the last couple years, Metamatics is but one of Lee Norris's musical monikers, also working under the guises of Norken and Nacht Plank. Mind Mushing Git (Midnight Sun Pig), more than any other Lee Norris project, strikes a balance between is all three of his guises, with the result is possibly the best Metamatics album to date. Evoking the ghosts of classic Artificial Intelligence' era IDM circa 1993 -- Plaid, B12, Autechre, Beaumont Hannant -- It encompasses the deep Detroit lushness of Norken with the off kilter melodies of Metamatics and the sweet ambient lullabies of Nacht Plank."
