A Certain Ratio return to Sextet with The Joy of Sextet, a companion release on Mute featuring a fresh mix of the original session tapes by longtime collaborator Andy Meecham (The Emperor Machine). Reworking the material from the ground up, Meecham brings new depth and focus to tracks including ‘Lucinda’ and ‘Knife Slits Water’, highlighting the band’s taut rhythms and experimental edge. Rather than a straight reissue, this is a reimagining that draws out different textures and dynamics from a pivotal set of recordings, offering a renewed perspective on one of ACR’s defining works.
