Unavailable on vinyl and CD since original\u003cbr\u003e\nrelease. Remastered from the original tapes by Matt Colton,\u003cbr\u003e\ncontains “Smokebelch II (Beatless Mix)” for the first time on the\u003cbr\u003e\n2LP edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eComing off the back of his work on the era-defining\u003cbr\u003e\nScreamadelica album by Primal Scream, not to mention\u003cbr\u003e\ngroundbreaking remix work for the likes of New Order, My\u003cbr\u003e\nBloody Valentine and the Happy Mondays, Weatherall was as\u003cbr\u003e\nrevered by fans of indie guitar music as he was namechecked by\u003cbr\u003e\nhardcore ravers. The increasing demands on his services led\u003cbr\u003e\nto a studio partnership with Kooner and Burns, forming the\u003cbr\u003e\nproduction trio The Sabres Of Paradise (named after a\u003cbr\u003e\n1960 book about a Muslim chieftain’s efforts to repel a\u003cbr\u003e\nRussian invasion).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening track on Sabresonic (named after the popular\u003cbr\u003e\nweekly club night Weatherall was then running) started life as a\u003cbr\u003e\nremix of the Primal Scream track “Don’t Fight It Feel It” but\u003cbr\u003e\ngot so radically mutated that it turned into something entirely\u003cbr\u003e\nnew. As well as reflecting on contemporary trends in dance\u003cbr\u003e\nmusic (“Inter-Legen-Ten-ko” is a swipe at the IDM genre name),\u003cbr\u003e\nthe album also brought in older influences - “R.S.D” is an\u003cbr\u003e\nacronym for “Red Stripe Dub”, the deep influence of King Tubby\u003cbr\u003e\net al evident at various points throughout the album, whilst\u003cbr\u003e\nthe epic icy vistas of the 14 minute+ “Clock Factory” are\u003cbr\u003e\ninformed by the electronic experiments of industrial groups such\u003cbr\u003e\nas Coil. The album also flagged future trends in electronic music,\u003cbr\u003e\nwith the timeless “Smokebelch II (Beatless Mix)”, a beautiful\u003cbr\u003e\nre-work of an old Chicago house tune by Lamont Booker,\u003cbr\u003e\nbecoming a staple of chillout compilation CDs for the rest of\u003cbr\u003e\nthe decade.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"(Warp)","offers":[{"title":"VINYL","offer_id":45783770497199,"sku":"5056818803420","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/8833\/2463\/files\/4433404-3402389.jpg?v=1755217687","url":"https:\/\/endofanear.sbs\/products\/sabres-of-paradise-sabresonic-2lp","provider":"End Of An Ear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
