Franklestein [LP]

The Finklestein Universe expands! Upon releasing Finklestein last year, a theme album about a fictitious kingdom, Hamish Kilgour simultaneously put out Funklestein which saw two side-long tracks that delved deeper into Kilgour's fairytale world. Now, the fairytale grows even more nuaced, as Ba Da Bing presents Franklestein-a series of radical remixes which use the Finklestein sessions as a starting point but, being "frank," are new compositions. Each track is an orchestra in a teacup, sounding like the best Velvet Underground boots suffused with dance beats, allowing unexpected room for autoharp, vibraphone and glockenspiel.
