GENERAL INFORMATION
=====================
Album: Asleep Versions EP
Artist: Jon Hopkins
Year: 2014
Genre: New Age / Electronic / Ambient
DESCRIPTION
==================
Starting with Immunity's titular closer, Hopkins re-works four Immunity highlights in reverse order, taking care to dismantle the heavy crackle of beats which defined "Form by Firelight", "Breathe This Air", and "Open Eye Signal". The space left over from his excavation remains unfilled, leaving simple piano chords, pattering percussion, field recordings, and vocal elements enough room to realize their full potential. You learn when listening to the new version of "Immunity" that maybe Scottish singer King Creosote's humbling vibrato should've always had a place at the forefront of Hopkins' original mix.
Whether it's the pap-pap-pap of a live xylophone or muffled thuds and brittle ticks hinting at a rhythmic structure, the record often feels haunted by Immunity's beats, like ghosts unreconciled with their forcible extraction. That quality does well to diversify what might've otherwise been a typical addition to the lineage of "ambient versions" in electronic music, and helps complement Hopkins' brilliant fourth album by never trying to overshadow his original work. - Patric Fallon , http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/19922-jon-hopkins-asleep-versions-ep/
