We started off small, just one version per single. However, through chance encounters and wanting to involve more people whose music excited us, the box soon grew into an impressive collection of sonic tapestries and hypnotic grooves and it became apparent that this was no longer about the singles. It was now about this new music which had used the different elements of Skying as a springboard to other ideas. We encouraged everyone involved to be as obtuse as possible, to get as far away from the original source material as they could. The results are stunning, and I think it&#8217;s just a shame we couldn&#8217;t have done more.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The box set contains\u00a04 x 12&#8243; vinyl,\u00a02 x CD and\u00a01 x DVD.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Track listing:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>12&#8243; Vinyl One:<br \/>\nA1.
