about

This album consists of a series of remixes of Caroline McKenzie's "The Drowning of Ophelia". Caroline's album is expansive and ambitious, the 14 tracks clocking in at over four hours. I thought it would be interesting to construct a series of three minute 'sketches', trying to capture snatches of the moods and atmospheres that she evokes; or, as she herself put it, to zero in on parts of the landscape and amplify them.

Every single one of the sounds that you hear are taken from her album, in each case from two or three of the tracks. The titles here relate to which of the songs from "Ophelia" were used. Mindre is Danish for 'less' or 'small'.

You can hear the original album here: carolinemckenzie.bandcamp.com/album/the-drowning-of-ophelia
Please check out the rest of her stuff, it's great - carolinemckenzie.bandcamp.com

This album is up for download at 'name your price'. However, any payment received will be donated to 'Mermaids', a charity which works to support transgender young people. The reason for this is that someone very close to me is currently transitioning: she is lucky to have supportive and understanding people around her; many young people, however, do not. The charity's website is here: www.mermaidsuk.org.uk
