Sweet Billy Pilgrim - Punkt

We wanted to let you know about a new release from our friends at Punkt in Norway that features elements of a performance by Sweet Billy Pilgrim

Punkt is an innovative music festival in Kristiansand, Norway, based on the combination of main stage concerts and the simultaneous live remixing of music from these concerts in a stage/studio environment. This musician driven festival was arranged for the first time in 2005, and the BBC Music Magazine immediately called it "This year's most innovative festival". 

The Live Remix concept:
The multi-channel sound from the Main Stage is transferred live to a small stage/studio hybrid called The Alpha Room, which is open to the public during the festival. In this intimate setting, the music is immediately remixed by acclaimed musicians, producers and remixers. 

Punkt Live Remixes vol. 1:
The album Punkt Live Remixes vol. 1 consists of two of these Live Remixes from the Punkt Festival: 

- Sidsel Endresen / Jan Bang / Erik Honoré's Live Remix of the concert by British band Sweet Billy Pilgrim (from the Punkt 07 festival)

- Jon Hassell / Audun Kleive / Jan Bang / Erik Honoré's Live Remix of the Merriwinkle concert (from the Punkt 05 festival).
