Peter Gabriel – i/o Dark-Side Mix 2LP

Peter Gabriel – i/o (Dark-Side Mix) 2LP

Peter Gabriel returned with i/o, his first full studio album of new original material in more than two decades. Developed over many years, the album brings together twelve richly layered compositions combining art rock, progressive pop, electronic textures and Gabriel’s unmistakable voice and songwriting.

This vinyl edition features the Dark-Side Mix by Tchad Blake. Compared with the alternative Bright-Side version, the Dark-Side Mix presents the album with a deeper, denser and more atmospheric character, placing particular emphasis on texture, space and low-frequency detail. The album is pressed as a 180 g double LP and presented in a gatefold sleeve with Obi strip.
