At over two hours long, Feast/Beast is a thorough reminder of how prolific a remixer Clark was during the 2000s and 2010s. It also reaffirms just how versatile a sound-shaper he is : while there's definitely an aesthetic holding even the wildest moments here together, he never takes exactly the same approach on any two songs. The names represented on Feast/Beast are almost as wide-ranging as the way he refashions tracks for them. Obviously, his remixes for some of the bigger artists are among the standouts, but he's just as creative in his work for lesser-known acts. Not surprisingly, some of the highlights come from his collaborations with fellow Warp artists, whether he's remixing them or vice versa; the Clark tracks remixed by his friends offer yet another perspective on his music. The collection often feels like the musical equivalent of a prism, taking all the facets of Clark's own work and separating them into boldly individual tracks. While it might be too much for many to process in one sitting, Feast/Beast is another comprehensive and entertaining document from one of the most eclectic producers of his time. ~ Heather Phares Show more
