Diamond Mine, the critically acclaimed debut collaborative album from King Creosote & Jon Hopkins, is getting the deluxe version treatment on 16th April 2012. The original, Mercury-nominated album is augmented with extra material including all three tracks from the Honest Words EP, B-sideMissionary and two brand new songs, Third Swan andStarboard Home.
Released a year ago to outstanding reviews, Diamond Minehas since become a much cherished album for an ever growing number of listeners. Featuring instrumental moments as affecting as the lyrical, the record consists of newly interpreted obscure delights picked out from 20 years of King Creosote’s treasure chest of a back catalogue. Intended to be heard as a single experience, Diamond Mine produces a near classical suite of emotion ranging from cracked despair to patched-up euphoria.
