Sun Restructured is a 're-animation' of Temples' much-acclaimed debut album by Beyond the Wizards Sleeve (Erol Alkan & Richard Norris)Beyond the Wizards Sleeve have created an epic 42-minute re-working of Sun Structures, using five re-interpreted tracks (Sand Dance, Shelter Song, a Question Isn't Answered, Golden Throne & Move with the Season) from the original album to form the spine of the record. Describing the record, Erol Alkan said: "Being asked to re-animate a whole album's worth of material is an honour. We (in return) wanted to create something special. A record which could be listened to in one go, from start to finish, a listening experience that is becoming increasingly rare. So as well as a host of full Beyond the Wizards Sleeve re-animations here, there are interludes, ambience, ebb and flow... each section flowing into a bigger piece. We tried many things along the way: spoken word sections, days out collecting field recordings, yet ended up letting the original songs and their beautiful arrangements and melodies guide us. There is so much happening under the surface of Sun Structures, and deep within each track, it was a pleasure to dive in and see what we could find. It inspired US to pick up our guitars, plug in our synthesizers and add some wizardry on top. Enjoy this trip. And it is a trip."
