Popol Vuh's soundtrack work for the films of Werner Herzog in 1970's and 1980's are some of the most stunning in the field. Editions Mego is pleased to present two re-workings of classic Vuh tracks. Mika Vainio takes 'Nachts: Schnee' from the 1987 soundtrack 'Cobra Verde', and delivers a skillfully constructed ambient piece of beauty, which shifts and turns over 10 minutes. Haswell & Hecker turn the majestic 'Aguirre' from the 1972 soundtrack 'Aguirre - The Wrath Of God' into possibly the first track to be played at the last rave on Earth. Unlike recent H&H releases on Warner Classics and Warp this does not utilize the upic system but vintage digital delays and freeze effect units, in conjunction with digital compositional tools.'
