The 20th anniversary re-issue of Fennesz's best-selling Venice, originally released in 2004, is now available as a deluxe version remastered by Denis Blackham, with new and extra tracks not on the previous CD or vinyl versions. Included is a booklet with texts by Fennesz himself, Denis Blackham, and Jon Wozencroft, with unseen photographs from the original 2004 sessions. The booklet also reproduces David Sylvian's original handwritten lyrics for "Transit." This "stunning" collaboration with David Sylvian continues where their fantastic duo track on Sylvian's album Blemish left off. Situated directly in the middle of a mostly subdued listening experience, "Transit" literally bursts out of the speakers accentuating the album's more pop-like characteristics as well as it's more restrained moments.
