Elijah’s Mantle – Breath of Lazarus
After building up an impressive catalogue on WSD, Elijah’s Mantle were asked by WSD to release a CD of previously released music as a CD in four parts.
Remixes were out of the question, but taking previously released work and changing it was a challenge Mark St. John Ellis considered a challenge.
The end result is a dark choral, trancelike dance soundtrack in four parts. It is a restoration of something from the past to vogue, ie a potential new listening group who have not discovered Elijah’s Mantle and revitalising to memory for those who have discovered the work of Elijah’s Mantle from the past.
