Nils Frahm is one of the best artists out there in my opinion, with pretty much the best live show I've ever seen. But aside from all that, this was just a really enjoyable remix to work on because the original is such a great piece of music, and seemingly so well suited to what I wanted to do with it - which was to try and turn Nils' instrumental jam on his Juno, into something house/techno/club/44 compatible, but still carrying the class and feeling of the original. It was one of those remixes that just seemed to fit and flow easily, with minimum strain and maximum enjoyment on my part - usually a good sign for a remix (the one's that have to be forced never seem to quite get there).

Big thanks to Billboard for featuring this remix, which is now available as part of my Balance 030 compilation:

Alice Boman released her debut EP "Skisser" earlier this year. And it seeped out to the public eye as steady as blood from a wound. 

The 7th of November Adrian Recordings is releasing a remix successor. 4 of the finest Swedish artists are trans-coding Alice's songs to another dimension.

Here's a version featuring Stockholm based kraut dance act NATTEN

I want you more than I need you. Are you coming back? Are you coming back? I'm waiting," sings Alice Boman in her fragile and hypnotizing voice. In her song "Waiting," the Scandinavian artist's voice is accompanied only by her melancholic piano playing. Boman recorded the song, as well as her entire debut EP Skisser, which means "sketches" in Swedish, at home. It is a raw, unedited testimony of the power of the relationship between music and emotion. Later this fall, Boman will re-release her EP with now in remixed form.

Skisser / Remixed  will be replete with more complex sounds, featuring up-and-coming Swedish music artists. Straying from trite DJs and already established remixers, Boman deliberately selected the younger artists with whom she collaborated. Here we are pleased to premiere Boman's unison with Swedish kraut dance orchestra NATTEN for the remix of "Waiting."

"I think I somehow become more aware and observant when listening to the remix," Boman says. "I love what NATTEN did—the beat and the horns and that bass. They added another pulse to it."

With NATTEN's additions, "Waiting" retains its melancholic tone while simultaneously acquiring a stronger substance from analogue instruments, such as the trumpet, and synthesizers. The remix further develops Boman's original sound; it does not entirely replace it.

Accordingly, Skisser / Remixed's album art reflects Boman's progression. The original Skisser cover depicts a costal field in soft focus with the ocean looming behind the trees on the horizon line. It is as though Boman stepped forward, across this field and through the trees with Skisser / Remixed, as a hazy image of crashing waves fronts the remixed EP. She traversed the placid landscape to explore the more rhythmic patterns of the ocean.

Poetry

‘Trust’ is de last track on our EP. It’s beat-minded, built around a drum loop with different layers of synths and guitars fading in and out. The progression of the chords left us with a sense of comfort, which makes the track a very dear one to us. We’re excited to share it with you all.

Taken from the ‘Echoes’ EP by Broj, ‘Trust’ is available for streaming and purchase at all stores.

OUT NOW: https://lnk.to/Dust-EP

Following on from his acclaimed 2017 debut album and an accompanying EP that relaunched the legendary British label, Novamute, Nicolas Bougaïeff presents a three track EP on Max Cooper’s Mesh imprint out June 26th. ‘Dust’ borrows its name from a short story by Greg Egan, in which a future scenario grants humans the ability to duplicate their consciousness as software, thus experiencing immortality.

Inspired by this narrative, Nicolas decided to focus on the experiences of the main character, who observes himself becoming increasingly disordered in his surroundings. As such, the EP is equal parts exhilarating and disturbed, taking references from melodic techno and distorting them into new forms amongst vast, unfamiliar landscapes.

‘Dust’ presents a glitchy melodic lead which unravels itself through 7 minutes of sudden volume changes and expansive acoustics. ‘Bremsstrahlung’ deconstructs the components of a hypnotic techno track, repurposing them into a tense framework. ‘Dust Theory’ morphs the theme from the title track into an abstract cocktail of ambient wanderings and harsh noise pollution.
