THN068 >> ALICE MACKAY & BENFAY - LIGHTHOUSE EP
[07.01.2005 | POETIC MINIMAL HOUSE]

2005 starts with an rather unusual release for Thinner. Consis-
ting of four gems, the 'Lighthouse EP' is a minimal vocal-house
EP that might surprise for it's poetic song passages within the
minimal house frame. This 3-tracker is the result of the first
collaborative effort of the ever versatile Benfay with the
irish singer Alice Mackay, currently residing in Scotland.
Additionally Niels Jensen, one half of the Morris Audio/Trapez
act 'Dialogue' remixes 'Jump' together with the Zurich DJ Eli
Verveine.

Being experienced in working with singers before it wouldn’t
be asked too much of Benfay to work with a singer in the field
of minimal house. Having studied the double-bass at the College
of Music in Berne, Benfay is a creative composer who utilizes
his many different influences of electronic and acoustic music
while composing a song. Due to his many projects, ranging from
clash poetry with Jürg Halter, where he uses to accompany with
electronics, or the Drum n'Bass liveband 'Foxtrott', Benjamin
Fay's versatility could never be reduced to one particular
style. So, opening 2005 for Thinner it would be a good chance
to walk on some new paths.

The three songs of the “Lighthouse EP” have quite a story.
Originally it was during Christmas 1999 when Benfay and Alice
spontaneously recorded her songs in Dublin. Back home in Berne
the songs got reworked. Alice liked the results but it would
take another while until Benfay builds these three tracks upon
her voice, cutting the sequences into parts and giving new
meaning to them. The project will be continued as Benfay will
travel to Scotland in February 2005 to record some new songs
with Alice.
