Late last year artists Keith Kenniff and Rafael Anton Irisarri collaborated on a reinterpretation of an Eric Satie track - 'Gnossieme No 1'. The piece was for a Satie compilation album, released by French label 'Arbouse'. The resulting piece is a beautifully haunted work, bringing together Kenniff's tender approach to the piano - perfect for Satie - with Irisarri's subtle use of field recordings and electronics.
We jumped at the chance to ask the two artists, both of which are favourites of ours, if they would produce a split mix for us. They have kindly agreed, and we're counting ourselves very lucky that they did. This, our first mix of the year, is nothing less than an unbelievably moving set, and proof again that these two artists are masters of their art. Enjoy.
