 What do acts like Ellie Goulding, Marina and The Diamonds, and Lana Del Rey all have in common? All three have had their tracks remixed by Penguin Prison, who’s skilled reinterpretations of original artist compositions have been called “immaculate” in the past. Last year Prison, real name Chris Glover, released a set of twelve original tracks in the form of an EP entitled “Animal Animal/A Funny Thing”, but its still his capacity to crosspolinate genres, and even add that extra kick of energy to his remixes, that keep him on the speed dials of various superstar clientele. Check out a bit of insight that Penguin Prison gave us into his working process.
