In related Assemblage 23 news, Shear has contributed an exclusive remix of the track "Impermanence" (from the forthcoming "Compass" album) for a special 4-disc compilation called "Electronic Saviors: Industrial Music to Cure Cancer". The compilation is being put together by Jim Semonik. Semonik was diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the spring of last year and since then has undergone a series of medicinal, surgical, and chemotherapy treatments. A year later, Semonik is now in the final stages of recovery. During his ordeal, Semonik cited the help of the American Cancer Society as being invaluable to he and his family, and thus he set out to create this compilation with all proceeds benefitting the American Cancer Society. A fall release is planned.
