[PREMIERE] Kutkh Jackdaw - Innocents

In the darkness they prepared themselves for the battle ahead. What little resources they had left they stockpiled in a safe place, guarded by those who were considered too weak to fight on the field. As soon as the sun reared its head on the horizon, the enemy would soon be on the move and time would be against them. Rumours had reached them that the opposition's army far outweighed their own but they had something to fight for that the others didn't; this battle was for everyone, it was for humanity. 

In June Brighton-based Scotsman Kutkh Jackdaw contributed a dark, industrial rhythmic cut to Medellin-based label Sonidos Subterraneos' compilation Estado De Golpe, a release aimed at raising awareness of and rejecting all forms of abuse, with profits being donated to social work causes. As a follow up to the track, Kutkh invited fellow Brighton producer Movement to put his own spin on it, and that he did, twisting the original into a heady 2-step remix that calls to mind artists and labels of the pre-dubstep era like El-B, Horsepower Productions and Digital Mystikz.

PREMIERE: Kutkh Jackdaw - A Warrior's Song Before The Flesh Is Eaten (Movement Remix)

This is essentially a remix of the 1977 UK punk classic 'Emergency' by 999. When I first started production, I wanted to combine my punk influences with my electronic influences in an interesting way. The original track by 999 was one of the first tracks I heard that inspired me with my ideas. I heard the solo guitars in the intro and thought I could do something with those. Compared to my previous two tracks; 'Innocents' and 'Psycho Killer' where the electronic influences were a lot stronger, 'Emergency' has more of a live-band feel. I was discovering coldwave and minimal wave, and those influences were beginning to creep into my music. I was also still listening to a lot of bass music/dubstep at this time, and maybe you can hear those influences in the track too, particularly in the 140bpm tempo and half-step beat.

The Post-Punk Tracks

Emergency

Kutkh Jackdaw - Emergency

This was my first track that wasn't at 140bpm. I slowed things down to 120bpm, although the live drums make it feel faster. At the time, I was listening to a lot of Powell, Shit & Shine, Not Waving, and Broken English Club, and I was inspired by the idea of 'post-punk techno'. About 90% of this track is made from samples from old punk records. It's also the first track that I used hardware on. I had bought a Roland R8 mkII drum machine, and so beefed up the percussion using this.

They Don't Understand

Kutkh Jackdaw - They Don't Understand

Did this little bootleg / mashup of DJ Loser 'Παραλογα Τειχη' and some Gaelic Salm singing, which sounds better than you might think.

Free download

If you like the track, go buy DJ Loser's original release on Clan Destine Records, it's a great EP.
