Editor's review
A Gonzalez remix project is particularly intriguing, given the almost hyperacoustic nature of his originals. And this EP doesn't disappoint. Standouts like "Killing for Love" trade their fret-buzzing six-strings for graceful and understated beatscapes.

"For a musician whose appeal seems to be an even, responsible, enlightened serenity... he was nice and forceful, just alone with his instrument, his voice dry and his guitar laden with echo... with his economical, decisive, percussive strikes he made a sound like an ax splitting a log." -New York Times
