In August, Leyland James Kirby, also otherwise known as The Caretaker, announced that he would be returning to his V/Vm project, reviving the alias after a decade-long break, writing: “V/Vm is back and ready for business.”

Now we know exactly what he was referring to, with the release having just been announced of Between eternity and nothingness, a project which will be released by V/Vm as Mrs Mills. If you don’t know who Mrs Mills is, you can have a watch of the video just below to inform yourself fully, but as a pianist in the 1960s and 1970s, she was famed for her performances of a number of sing-along party tunes at music halls up and down the country.

This new release from V/Vm sees Kirby adapt Tim Hecker’s recent Love Streams album in a Mrs Mills party style, reverse engineering Hecker’s originals, and it is available to buy in a limited CD edition from Boomkat here, while you can also download it for free here. You can also get a full explanation of Kirby's process in producing the album via that link.

That’s not all Kirby has been up to as V/Vm though as he has also applied a similar process to Hecker’s last album, only this time as if Nils Frahm had reworked it. However, only 10 CD copies of this have been produced - you can take a look at photographic evidence of its existence just below - and tQ is offering you the chance to get your hands on one of them via the competition below.

Explaining a little more about this specific undertaking, Kirby said: “I was over the moon to discover that Nils Frahm is a big fan of ‘An Empty bliss’ and that he sampled a track from it on his Late Night Tales mix. With a smile and to return the favour I thought I’d try my hand at making Tim’s last album as if Nils reworked it on his Una Corda and fully pressed up the result on Compact-Disco for my own enjoyment.”

If you want to enter to win a copy of the CD, all you have to do is email an image of anything tied to anything else to comps@thequietus.com. The competition closes at midday on November 7 and we will pick a winner very shortly after. Just to give you some inspiration, take a look at the video below.
