BY Alex HudsonPublished Apr 25, 2014

It's been well over 20 years since All Saints Records launched as a spin-off of Brian Eno's Opal Records, and now the newly relaunched ambient label is celebrating its legacy with a two-disc compilation. Greater Lengths will come out on June 2 in collaboration with Warp Records.

The double-CD set features two distinct haves: Originals and Reworks. The Originals disc consists of tracks from throughout the label's history, while the Reworks features new version of past favourites.

Among the artists who contribute catalogue material here are Brian Eno, John Cale, Laraaji, John Paul Jones, Roedelius and Roger Eno. As for the artists who offer up reworkings, they include Sun Araw, Peaking Lights, patten, Motion Sickness of Time Travel, Bee Mask and more. See the full tracklist below.

The compilation can be ordered here.

Additionally, All Saints will release four remix EPs on vinyl, each one focusing on a different act from the label. The artists who have their work reinterpreted are Laraaji, Roedelius, Jon Hassell and Harold Budd. The Laraaji remixes will come out on May 12, while the rest will follow on June 2.

There's also a triple-vinyl pressing of the prior Laraaji compilation Celestial Music 1978 - 2011 coming out on May 20.
