Hybrid - Remix and Additional Production By (2001) (FLAC-EAC-CUE)
An Admission
This is the first FLAC upload i have uploaded that is not taken / ripped from my own CD collection !!!!!
I acquired this awesome gem from a little "Mexican friend" of mine some time ago .
I cannot take credit or condemnation for the quality of this uploads but i feel this album should be shared with Hybrid fans and music fans alike.
I rarely upload content that is not my own collection but i feel in this case i must make an exception !!!!!!!
Hybrid
Real Name:
Mike Truman & Chris Healings
Profile:
Hybrid is Mike Truman and Chris Healings from Swansea, South Wales. They are the accomplished architects of house and progressive breakbeat who ventured further beyond the ecstatic knee-jerk response of the dancefloor by fusing their beats with powerful orchestral and cinematic soundscapes.
After DJing separately at Welsh clubs throught the late 80's and early 90's, Hybrid formed back in 1993 after bonding over Truman's remix of Pink Floyd's 'Another Brick In The Wall’. Their 1999 debut LP (with former member Lee Mullin) 'Wide Angle' sold a total of 100,000 copies world wide. "We like making music that will last," explains Healings. "Music that isn't disposable. We want people to listen to it over and over again in the future." "Music you can play before you go out and listen to when you chillout," continues Truman.
Hybrid have collaborated with artists such as New Order's Peter Hook, The Pretender's Chrissie Hynde, Kirsty Hawkshaw, Julee Cruise and the 90-piece Russian Federal Orchestra.
Hybrid has also remixed over 40 artists including Radiohead, 2 Bad Mice, Alanis Morissette, Carl Cox, BT, The Future Sound Of London and Moby.

Hybrid is quite possibly be one of the most talented (though still quite underrated) trance/electronica groups around, and this CD further proves that point. Their first album, 'Wide Angle', was a phenomenal debut. Combining rich orchestral strings with killer breakbeats in a unique film layout (the score to a spy movie never made), it was met with critical acclaim in the UK and is now making waves in the US. Now, 'Remix & Additional Production' sees Mike Truman and the rest of the Hybrid crew headed for success once more.
Here, Hybrid takes a variety of tracks and adds a unique twist. They illuminate the crux of each track while adding their own elements, and as such you may find delightful transformations evident in tracks you've heard of. The list is varied, with classics ('Cafe Del Mar') alongside stranger choices ('Take a Picture'). The soul that is missing from most electronic music is here- the strings in 'Glorious' are simply beautiful, and the haunting piano in 'Never Gonna Come Back Down' adds even more texture to the song. The tracks flow like water into each other, and the long hours of work put into each track is clear.
'Remix & Additional Production' is an incredible remix CD, and is well worth buying, as is 'Wide Angle' if you don't already own it. Hybrid is exceptional high class breakbeat- Mike Truman and co. do it with style, and they do it -well-.
