Second Skin is a remix album by Australian musicians John Course & mrTimothy, best known for their Ministry Of Sound compilations. The album, featuring Katie Noonan's vocals, is a remix project from her 2007 album Skin.
Noonan says: "The dance album project Second Skin was another fun element to this album – the chance to explore these tunes well and truly out of their comfort zone in the dance world – and for me to re-record all the lead vocals (in a day!)"[1]
The album debuted and peaked at number 19 on ARIA Dance Chart on 28 April 2008.[2]
Pete Dillon of SameSame said; "With programming/mixing from Mr Timothy and John Course, Noonan’s beautifully feminine voice sits fabulously over some acoustic and electric guitar sounds and some wicked dance beats. With a sound similar to Morcheeba and Moloko, this is the music you want on when you are zipping around the house with a dust cloth or mop. It has been spinning while I have entertained dinner guests and works just as nicely." Adding "This is a highly recommended disc and one that should be in all those collections that have some great vocally based funky electro sounds."[3]
Waterfront said: "John Course and MrTimothy have captured the sensual and uplifting essence of Skin while introducing a house, funk beat - and the result is the refreshingly ambient remixed album."[4]
