Compilation Of The Month 39 - March 2019

Sulk

A heavy, heavy remix package here from Hypercolour.  Step forward Bonobo, Kowton and Dark Sky, who all contribute stellar remixes of Maya Jane Coles’ “Don’t Put Me In Your Box” EP, originally out in 2011.

Bonobo seals a huge period of activity, including a rack of acclaimed albums for Ninja Tune, with an ethereal and sublime take on “Something In The Air”.  The remix cinematically sweeps over you, its rising melodies and tight percussions making this a standout job from Bonobo.

Bristol’s Joe Cowton AKA Kowton plucks for “Parallel Worlds” from Maya’s EP to get the once over, opting for a dancefloor-centric re-work.  Stripping things right back with big, distorted drums and strobe like percs, the Idle Hands and Livity Sound man affords us with a real sweat soaked warehouse banger of a remix. 

Wrapping up this remix package is the Dark Sky remix of  “Something In The Air”.  Whereas Bonobo took the Original to more heady territories, Dark Sky’s mix is underpinned with a rattling 4/4 groove and big subby sweeps, retaining the original’s melodic touches.  Dark Sky have been firing on all cylinders of late, releases on Tectonic and 50 Weapons, collaborations with Breach…and this remix further solidifies their credentials as a team to watch out for.

A1 “Gscheids Planet” unfolds with a deceptive intro, click-clackety downtempo stomps and 
crunchy snares beneath a tender vocoder coo, just when some muted guitar plucks crescendo 
into a burst of robo-synths. Although three minutes have passed, only now does the song 
reveal its true nature, a summery tune with rich synths that billow in the wind.
