Track:
Alarm Will Sound is a 20-member chamber orchestra that focuses on recordings and performances of contemporary music. As the title of the album suggests, these tracks are covers of various Aphex Twin songs... but not just "covers" - insanely accurate, acoustic re-creations using traditional instruments; as well as prepared piano/violin, curtain rods, rubber hose, electric engraver, refrigerator rack lamellophone (tuned fridge rack), and tons of other modified and homemade instruments.
It's also worth mentioning that, like "Jerseyband":http://mog.com/music/Jerseyband, the members of Alarm Will Sound began playing together while studying at the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York.
