Retro Retry 2: Another Another Green World Release: October 7 2009
On October 7 the record label Narrominded will release Retro Retry 2: Another Another
Green World. On this cd fourteen Dutch electronic artists cover Brian Eno s album
Another Green World (1975), which is considered a timeless masterpiece, in its entirety.
The revolutionary work of Brian Eno is of big influence on the development of electronic
pop music and ambient. 'Another Green World is an album that ties together various
styles and musical ideas in a brilliant way. Our record label has the same eclectic
approach. That made this album a perfect choice for this project', says Coen Polack
of Narrominded.
Participants Another Another Green World: FFF, Polycorn, Legowelt, Rude 66, Spoelstra,
Coen Oscar Polack, This Is Total War, Garc'on Taupe, Nanko,
Baba Electronica & DJ Lonely, Puin + Hoop, Hakki Takki, Hunter Complex, Hydrus. The
artwork for the digipack sleeve was designed by Willehad Eilers. The cd was mastered by
Alden Tyrell.
Release parties
The cd will be presented with two release parties. On October 3 there is room for the
ambient and electro-acoustic acts in Delicatessen, a new shop/gallery that was recently
opened in the east of Amsterdam by Bas Jacobs (Pfaff). On November 7 the dance acts p
resent the cd in the small hall of Het Patronaat in Haarlem.
October 3, Delicatessen, Amsterdam. Live: Hakki Takki, Hydrus, Puin + Hoop, Spoelstra.
November 7, Patronaat, Haarlem. Live: FFF, Legowelt, Rude 66, Garc'on Taupe,

The Retro Retry cd s follow a unique concept with multiple acts cover a record in its
entirety. The listener hears an interpretation of a complete record, instead of a
random collection of covered tracks. In 2005 the first edition of Retro Retry was
released. On this release ten Dutch bands covered the Sonic Youth record EVOL (1986).
Among the bands were zZz, Gone Bald, Pfaff, Blues Brother Castro and Fine China
Superbone.
