If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll know that the MINING LPs and CDs will finally be hitting shops in the UK and Europe this Friday (June 14th for the rest of the world). We wouldn’t necessarily blame you if this had slipped your mind. There have been plenty of world-weary updates about vinyl production which are easy to blank out, but it’s time to start paying attention again!

The key message: the Chimet vinyl is looking and sounding fantastic. You can purchase in confidence.

By way of a reminder, MINING have released a reworking of opening track ‘Ophelia’. Don’t worry though, they’ve remixed it with ‘data’ rather than a generic house beat.

This is what MINING have to say of the process: “’Ophelia (Remapped)’ is a fresh take on the sonification of the opening movement of Chimet. It has been a chance to re-evaluate the relationships between the output of data and their sonic representations. By changing emphasis and focal point, it provides a new listening experience of Storm Ophelia’s aftermath, and includes elements present throughout the entirety of the album.”

The download is available on a pay-what-you-want basis.
