Hi all,

New version out today, but the stunning Leyland Kirby (who has also done work as The Caretaker, V/VM and The Stranger).

Download his version from http://www.ldwr.net/

He says:

'It's nice to work for Justin and Helen on this as they are good people, and good people involved in music these days are few and far between. I look forward to seeing them both in my old stomping ground of Manchester soon.'

Find out more about his new project, History Always Favours the Winners, at the sites below:

I’m delighted to announce that our 12^th EP is  by the wonderful Spool Ensemble. 

 

Spool Ensemble was formed in 1996 in North Carolina in order to explore freely improvised creative music. Having involved over a dozen musicians, the group embraces acoustic, electronic and electroacoustic formats to acheive its aims.

 

To find out more about them, go HERE.

It can be downloaded for free from the the LDWR Website.  It’s another lovely collection of tracks, I hope you enjoy it.

 

You can also download the previous 10 versions as well, all for FREE.  Plus we have put together Versions 1-5 and 6-10 in easy to download bundles as well, in case you haven’t got them yet.

Many thanks for your support, and catch you soon,

Version 11 has arrived, and is another great set of tracks.  The version is by The Truth About Frank, a duo from Leeds active in the field of electronic music since late 2006.

Here's what they have to say about their tracks:

"We are always open to interesting collaborations and so were delighted to be invited to contribute to the 14 Versions series, particularly given the quality of releases to date.

For this project, very specific roles were assigned and working methods adopted.  Our main rule was to stick strictly to the sound sources provided with the aim of creating four pieces that we believed compliment each other and work in sequence, as well as fitting in with what we understand to be the spirit of the project.  We, at least, are pleased with how our contribution has turned out, and would like to thank LDWR for their support and interest."

  Hi all,  

  We are delighted to announce the release of Version 9 of 14 Versions of the same EP by the wonderful Volume = Colour.  

  Go to the LDWR site for more info and for links to our free downloads.   

  Volume = Colour are guitarist/artist Arthur Karanikas and musician/visualist Don Rogers, initially formed to perform closing night of the 2006 Melbourne Fringe Festival. They use images of Arthur's paintings to create visual projections around which a soundtrack of open ended, instrumental pieces is performed live. The concept has been performed multiple times in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, Australia - including 2007's Adelaide Fringe Festival.  

  August 2008 sees Volume = Colour produce the 9th release in the Long Division With Remainders project series. For Version 9, Volume = Colour chose to integrate some of their existing recordings with material provided by LDWR. Employing the remix and collaborative skills of friends Cam Butler, Michael Munsun, Geosophy and Primitive Charlie, four radical reinterpretations have been created.    

  Besides also playing in Infinite Decimals, members of Volume = Colour are currently working on their next audio-visual show, Lost To The City - 'an abstract film about the city' with a live soundtrack, debuting on closing night of the 2008 Melbourne Fringe Festival.  

  More information about Volume = Colour can be found HERE.    

  Best wishes for now, and stay tuned for the next version very soon,  

  Please pass on the LDWR news to all your friends and family who enjoy free stuff, and great sounds.  

  Also, the first release from our sister project Front & Follow is released on 1st September, on digital download and very limited CD – go HERE for more details.  More info on this very soon.

It's been a wonderful month for LDWR, with tracks from several versions featured in the Queering Sound Festival in Washington D.C. Not only that, but a series of film clips were also made for the festival. Thanks to everyone involved for including the work of LDWR and taking the project to some special new places.

Queering Sound is the work of JS Adams (aka BLK w/BEAR), who continues to be an inspiration for me personally and for many involved in LDWR. For more information about the festival, please go HERE.





Best wishes for now, and stay tuned for the next version very soon, and of course the first release from our sister project Front & Follow – go HERE for more details.

Hi all,

Version 7 of 14 Versions of the same EP is out now, and is by Ken Peel. Ken's put his own spin on the core tracks, and made something fantastic. It's a real plasure to have him on board.

Go to the LDWR site for more info and for links to our free downloads.

More information about Ken can be found here on his fancy new website.

Ken Peel is a producer and composer currently residing in Bristol, England, who describes his music as 'lounge electronica'. Ken's previous work includes the album 'Marginal' which has been compared to the music of Brian Eno, Harold Budd and David Sylvian. An occasional soundtrack composer, Ken developed the musical branding for the radio show The Chiller Cabinet formerly of Classic FM and now Chill DAB, produced by Ben Eshmade. Ken met Justin through The Arctic Circle, a loose community of musicians, artists, DJs and VJs curated by Ben Eshmade. Ken describes working on the LDWR tracks as "a real challenge, but one that is very welcome, and has proved very rewarding".

Thanks to everyone who has left messages or emailed about the project, its really appreciated.

The next EP will be with you in a months time.

Please pass on the LDWR news to all your friends and family who enjoy free stuff, and great sounds.
