This release features Scanner's classical/electronica score to the full-length ballet for Dutch National Ballet, which premiered at Het Muziektheater on June 17th 2011, commissioned for the Holland Festival. Choreographed by Britain-born Berlin resident David Dawson, the work reflects upon the legends from Greek mythology, across a range of moods. Spooky, sexy, percussive strings resonate a cinematic tension, while a disco-from-hell arrives and disappears and we are left in a melancholic realm of romantic strings and heart-aching emotions. Active since 1991, Robin Rimbaud -- known as Scanner -- has been intensively active in sound art, producing concerts, installations and recordings. He has remixed and collaborated with a wealth of artists across the arts, including Laurie Anderson, Bryan Ferry, Carsten Nicolai, Dangermouse, Michael Nyman, Luc Ferrari, and Mike Kelley, amongst many others.
