language–culture–ideas–fashion–images–space–music–etc–
one is potentially able to mix and remix everything
re: mix regards this global culture of free mixing
re: mix is a mix of musicians mixing around led by violinist Foo Say Ming
re: mix does not view popular culture as an anathema to the thinking and experimentation of classical music. But re: mix is not a simple crossover. Instead, like the popular cultural definition of remix, re: mix mixes new beats, new rhythms, and quotations of canonic music in a new way but at the same time maintains the demanding performing standards of the classical musical ensemble.
re: mix is especially interested in mixing-up
the tradition of Western classical music
re: mix is a call to local composers to think this mixing-up of tradition and mixing of genres for the petit ensemble that re: mix is
as petit ensemble – re: mix is a mobile outfit and as such is interested in mixing sound and space and will seek to experiment with mixing itself around spaces
