Erland Dahlen Remix out today

Erland Dahlen was approached by artist Bjørn Charles Dreyer to re-think, re-make and remix the track Entirety for Guitar, Electronics and Orchestra from Dreyer's innovative album Time and Mass. This is the impressive result.

My idea of music is that the power is in the understated, the contemplative. But, when I ask someone to remix it, my music reaches a new potency level. Here is a compelling remix by an artist that I respect a lot, Erland Dahlen. - Bjørn Charles Dreyer

5 Stars to Espen Berg!
