Heathered Pearls - Loyal Reworks LP + Laneway Festival


“Heathered Pearls' 2012 album Loyal was "... the perfect winter soundtrack... layering soft synthesizers, indistinct loops, and hazy who-knows-what ..." according to SPIN. It's a record based around recreating the soothing qualities of the ocean at night as an immersive listening experience. The album has a quiet, organic beauty that's as much a celebration of melody as it is of atmosphere, and both those qualities are explored further in this suite of remixes.
 
Jakub Alexander, the man behind the project, is releasing a remixed version of the LP titled Loyal Reworks, containig 14 remixes of the tracks on Loyal, bringing together producers as diverse as Toronto-born musician Foxes in Fiction and Detroit techno doyen Terrence Dixon. As a whole, Loyal Reworks functions beautifully as an alternate exploration of an album whose depths continue to reveal themselves, just like the ocean on which it's based.

Loyal Reworks is now available via Ghostly International right here.

And be sure to check out Heathered Pearls live this weekend at Laneway Festival!
