“Secret Thirteen Mix 104” is a thoughtful and scrupulous recording that melts over 40 prominent record cuts to form a sustained and exclusive audio collage. Each composition was re-worked in a real time after adding diverse sound effects and modulations to make it sound fresh and unexpected. Violet Poison said that “there is no future without past” so that is why he included works composed between 1954 and 2013, to show their relevance, longevity and of course his own musical sophistication. Taking pieces from this long period of time, Violet Poison manages to reduce the tension between compositions and develop a crystal contemporary wholeness. “This music hits every part of me and it is part of me, like an arm” says Violet Poison.
