Austin instrumentalists My Education have teamed up with underground hip-hop behemoths Dälek to release what will surely be one of this year’s most surprising records.
The unlikely pair will each tackle Spiegel im Spiegel, a piece originally composed by the Estonian minimalist Arvo Part in 1978. The piano and violin composition will be put through the grinder, with both groups recording their own unique takes on the song.
Be sure to keep your eyes out for this one – it’s tentatively slated for release sometime this month.

Yep
Dälek
the only person ive ever seen break a technic deck was the dj from Dälek
early on in their set at the 13th note/barfly in glasgow a few years back
spiegel im spiegel
is a great song - but i can't see very far for them to go with it. Isn't this just going to be "My Education and Dalek both sample bits of the same song"?
Dalek
are amazing
