Remixes by Wooden Shjips

Remixes is a 28 minute EP featuring exclusive cuts and remixes from Andrew Weatherall, Sonic Boom (Pete Kember of Spacemen 3) and Kandodo (Simon Price of The Heads).

Andrew Weatherall, long time producer and remixer who has worked with the likes of Primal Scream, New Order, My Bloody Valentine, and Bjork, remixed "Crossing". Pete Kember, also known as Sonic Boom of Spacemen 3/Spectrum fame contributed "Wiking Stew (aka Red Krayola-ing)". When Pete was called in to help master the record he was inspired by the album and made this mash up from West on his own. Last but not least is the track "Ursus Maritimus (Last Bear's Lament)", a long distance collaboration with kandodo (otherwise known as Simon Price from The Heads). Ripley created the bed of the track in Colorado in between tours and sent if off to Simon, in London. Simon added all the additional instrumentation at his home studio.

Wooden Shjips’ rise to prominence from the psychedelic underground to the rock and roll overground has been a steady sojourn. With each new release, the band has found new ways of transforming heady psychedelic rock into minimalist masterpieces, bridging the gap between the woozy freeness of Les Rallizes Denudes and Crazy Horse and the simplicity of Suicide and the Velvet Underground.
