Perestroika is the Russian word for “Restructuring”, and that’s exactly what’s happening on this split release. There are two new tracks here, one each from Miniature Airlines and Hjalti, and two remixes, with each artist eviscerating and re-working the other’s original. It’s a surprisingly varied release that doesn’t fit easily into a single genre. At certain points, it’s dark and experimental, but soon enough becomes slick and dancefloor friendly. Skittery IDM beats collide with four on the floor house kicks, easily evading classification.

Pushpin Revolution is the second EP from Miniature Airlines, originally released in 2006 on the now-defunct netlabel Belladonna Records. The title track was written in a single sitting several years earlier, and the rest of the tracks were later built on top of the framework of that one song. The end result is a set of songs with a consistent sound, and varying musical styles, from the moody atmospherics of the introductory track, “Safetypin Tyranny”, to the ecstatic club anthem closer of “Pincushion Empire”. There are a multitude of influences at work here, from old school electro, new wave pop, and drum and bass, to IDM, hip hop, and straight ahead four-on-the-floor dance music.

This is where it all started, the self-released EP about clothing that was later re-released by Belladonna Records. Back in these days, Miniature Airlines went by the name Airliner, by a Swedish indie-folk artist had already laid claim to that name, and a very polite e-mail exchange prompted the switch to the current name. Skittery breakbeats and stuttered guitars collide under a layer of shimmering pads on this unusual IDM gem.
