Kings of Convenience - Versus

NEW VINYL LP ON UNIVERSAL 2016

180 GRAM VINYL.

It is quite rare for a remix album to better the source material. Versus by Kings of Convenience is one of those select few. Their album Quiet Is the New Loud is a very pleasant disc, but the songs all begin to sound the same halfway through. That's not a problem here, as the various remixers take varying approaches to the Kings' hushed and nocturnal sound.
