This allows new elements to shine on the surface of the music. \u003cstrong\u003eKing Creosote's\u003c\/strong\u003e Scottish vibrato is pushed to the front of \"Immunity,\" taking the song in a completely different direction. \"Open Eye Signal (Asleep Version)\" is led by 7 minutes of glacial pads before the piano is allowed a single note. The songs fit together as a single piece of music and it seems that is the only way to really take it all in. Somehow it feels as if the material is particularly informed by where is was recorded. Hopkins decamped to Mosfellsbaer, Iceland on the outskirts of Reykjavik to work on \u003ci\u003eAsleep Versions\u003c\/i\u003e and the album seems steeped in that country's icy winters.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\r\u003cul\u003e\r\r\u003cli\u003e180 gram pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\r\r\u003cli\u003eincludes free download\u003c\/li\u003e\r\r\u003cli\u003emusic label: Domino 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\r\r\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\r\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by Michu Meszaros 11\/2014\u003c\/h6\u003e.","brand":"Jon Hopkins","offers":[{"title":"12\" Vinyl","offer_id":1010138792,"sku":"lp-6361","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/products\/jonhopkins-asleepversions.jpg?v=1759260617","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/jon-hopkins-asleep-versions-180g-free-mp3-vinyl-12","provider":"turntablelab.sbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
