The debut Temples LP, Sun Structures is getting a rework. Erol Alkan announced on his Facebook page that Beyond The Wizard's Sleeve is re-animating the album in its entirety. He also said that this is the first and only time they will remix an entire LP.
In the words of Erol: "Being asked to re-animate a whole album's worth of material is an honour. We (in return) wanted to create something special. A record which could be listened to in one go, from start to finish, a listening experience that is becoming increasingly rare. So as well as a host of full Beyond The Wizards Sleeve re-animations here, there are interludes, ambience, ebb and flow... each section flowing into a bigger piece." He added: "There is so much happening under the surface of Sun Structures, and deep within each track, it was a pleasure to dive in and see what we could find. it inspired us to pick up our guitars, plug in our synthesisers and add some wizardry on top. Enjoy this trip. And it is a trip."
Beyond The Wizard's Sleeve is a project of Erol Alkan and Richard Norris, who have released an LP as well as several "re-animations" several of which have been compiled on an album.
After playing Reading Festival, Temples announced tour dates in the U.K. this fall.
