Thomas of mystified, having listened to a recent net release through Batman and Robin Records, realized that the sounds in the release would function well both as individual songs and as raw material for remixes. Much of the sounds on this release, "Particular Streams", are translations of field recordings made in South Saint Louis, Missouri.
When Thomas issued a call for musicians to use "Particular Streams" as source material for remixing, there was a solid response, and all kinds of different artists stepped forward and offered their interpretations. Thomas was especially happy with the diversity of the remixes. Definitely a lot of creativity went into each one.
Stay tuned, as additional volumes of this remix project may appear. The project is not yet officially closed. More information here:
