## Description

Product Description
        	
        	
        		
        			In 2007 Portico Quartet moved from busking on the South Bank in London to a recording studio and, with the remains of the money from their student grants, created their first album, &apos;Knee Deep In The North Sea&apos; (released on Babel/Vortex). This was a turning point for the band, the album attracted attention from DJs, bloggers and critics of every stripe, and was nominated for the 2008 Mercury Music Prize. Now, re-released on Real World Records, &apos;Knee Deep In The North Sea&apos; has been remixed by John Leckie (The Stone Roses, Radiohead, Muse and producer of Isla) and features three new tracks.

        			&quot;..it is the added 20 minutes of live tracks that make this a repurchase. Best is a version of the title track recorded in Copenhagen, which builds the drama with long, trippy opening and free-form sax climax. It shows how the quartet&apos;s confidence to let the music breathe on-stage has grown.&quot; -- Mojo ****&quot;John Leckie has added depth and detail to lend a more complexly wrought studio texture to the original record&apos;s more austere charm. If something is lost, something is gained too, as Leckie&apos;s soundboard moves Portico&apos;s inventive jazz/classical noodlings even closer to Radiohead, to whom they were compared on original release.&quot; -- Uncut ****
