Illustrious will be working with Jawbone (the company that has created Jambox, the ultra-portable bluetooth speaker) to create 3D spatialized mixes in collaboration with a variety of well known artists and labels from around the world.

Current project: Martyn and Vince are compiling a super-luxury 10 CD boxed set, called ‘House of Illustrious’, to be released on Mute Records in spring 2012. This will be an exhaustive 10-year retrospective of all Illustrious’ soundscape compositions, with over 10 hours of original content, most of which have never been made available on disc before.
Malcolm Garrett from 53K and Tim Milne from Artomatic are currently designing extraordinary packaging for this once-in-a-lifetime release.

Coming up: a series of 3D soundscapes designed for the charity Save The Children, featuring songs and sound recordings from children around the world – to be featured in selected Mary’s Living And Giving stores and installations throughout 2012.
