It’s only four months into the year, but 2011 has already marked a revolutionary epoch in the career of Holland’s Alex O’Rion. In that time it’s seen him sign with one of the UK’s foremost DJ agencies, successfully initiate his new radio show/podcast and become head of A&R for Black Hole’s Terminal 4 label. He’s also turned loose the Green and Blue EPs, which form the leading edge of his impressive, wide-scope debut album, ‘The Bigger Room’.

Last February, BT released his sixth studio album, THESE HOPEFUL MACHINES, to critical acclaim, leading to a GRAMMY® nomination for “Best Dance/Electronic Album.” The album carried the listener through two hours of sweeping orchestral arrangements, pulsating electronic beats, heartfelt vocal melodies and elemental acoustic guitar. BT now presents These Re-Imagined Machines, a two-disc collection of BT’s original compositions on These Hopeful Machines “re-imagined” by some of BT’s most respected peers, including: Armin van Buuren, Sultan & Ned Shepard and Chicane. Six of the 17 tracks have never before been released.
