Larks Elemental Mixes

Available for the first time as a digital release on dgmlive and all major streaming services.

As part of the 50th anniversary of King Crimson's classic 1973 album 'Larks' Tongues in Aspic', David Singleton at DGM was mixing every single take of the original studio sessions.

These unreleased early takes are presented not as traditionally blended pieces, but with maximum separation, mimicking the experience of sitting in the studio with the individual elements being performed around you. The “Elemental mixes” apply this same approach to the main album takes. An excitingly fresh view on the familiar, with the focus often falling in unusual places, some originally hidden, some unused. Four of the album’s core tracks appear here as Larks' Tongues in Aspic - The Elemental Mixes .  

David Singleton explains the process in this video:

 

The Elemental Mixes are also available on sides C and D of the vinyl Larks' Tongues in Aspic 50th Anniversary 2LP

and on CD 2 of Larks' Tongues in Aspic 50th Anniversary 2CD, 2 Blu-ray
