Origin:Orphan Remixed
The Hidden Cameras with Motor Entertainment are pleased to announce a remix album of 2009’s Origin:Orphan on the heels of its fifteen year anniversary entitled Origin:Orphan Remixed which includes never-before-heard remixes from their critically acclaimed album. Pet Shop Boys’ organic remix of “Colour of a Man” was never properly released until now as well as the upbeat Noblesse Oblige remix of “Origin:Orphan“. Also featuring remixes by Hidrogenesse, Holy Fuck, Stuart Price featuring Jake Shears and Dolby Anol, the whole album plays as an alternate version of Origin:Orphan and with an exact playing time of 60 minutes is a unique work of art in its own right.
