Aksak Maboul - Redrawn Figures 1 '2021

Tracks list

Fifteen artists revisit the tracks AND the cover art of Aksak Mabouls latest
album Figures!

Ranging from simple remixes to reconstructions and cover versions, these 18
tracks are released on two separate, limited-edition vinyl LPs, as well as on
two digital albums.

In order to extend the fun (and the metaphor in the title), Aksak Maboul have
asked the contributors to also revisit Véronique Vincent’s painting
which adorned the front cover of the album *.

The participants include experimental pop luminaries The Notwist (DE), Cate Le
Bon (GB), Kate NV (RU) and Vanishing Twin (GB), respected electronic music
artists Felix Kubin (DE), Tolouse Low Trax (DE), Hello Skinny aka Tom Skinner,
GB), Matias Aguayo (CL/DE) and Stubbleman aka Pascal Gabriel (GB/BE), revered
experimentalist Carl Stone (US), up-an-coming beat makers Shungu (BE) and
ohh_luuu (US), Nihiloxica’s Spooky-J (GB) and Chicago house veteran
Jordan Fields (US). The collection is rounded off by four reworks made by Aksak
Maboul’s Marc Hollander.

* The artwork for Redrawn Figures 1 features 16 “redrawings” of the
original cover, done by most of the artists mentioned above, each in his own
personal graphic style.

As for cover of Redrawn Figures 2, it features a visual remix of
Véronique’s painting by renowned French painter Hervé Di Rosa
(co-founder of the Figuration Libre movement, which, drawing inspiration from
comics, graffiti and outsider art, blew a breath of fresh air into museums, in
France and worldwide).
