Purple Yellow Red and Blue

Purple Yellow Red and Blue (Passion Pit Remix)

Parallel Jalebi

Le Carousel is Phil Kieran's latest LP, which is great, it was a pleasure to work with this track, and all the better because I decided I was going to do something weird with it! The lovely pads and vocals provided the backbone for my remix, and I just tried to accentuate these with a long ambient build.

The track would probably work better just with this ambient part and no more, but I decided to add on some sort of odd drop at the end, where it goes all hectic with lots of double timed randomised beats. To continue with the unexpected theme I went for another extended build to total distortion, climaxing in nothingness!

It's probably not the easiest track to fit into a set unless you just use the ambient part, but it's always nice to just let go and mess around with a track without worrying about how it might function outside of what you feel you want to do musically at the time.

Release date is 23rd September on PKR

Four Tet - Gillie Amma, I Love You

This track is about emergence from the combination of polar opposites. Fragments of self from very different places, but part of the same whole.

Combining classical and computational elements is something I've been experimenting with for some years, but this attempt to combine the extreme opposites of each was spurred on by some chance DJing experiments, a fortuitous collaboration opportunity, and the amazing work of my friends Olafur Arnalds and Vaetxh (Rob Clouth). I found that I could mix the most beautiful and delicate piano solo of Olafur, with the most hyper-edited and jarring glitch of Vaetxh, and that the result actually worked, well, for me anyway, even if half the people in the club stood confused about how to dance. So when the opportunity arose to work with the pianist and composer Tom Hodge, I wanted to try and create this form of merger of extremes for a release, rather than it being confined to my DJ toolbox (also on the classical meets glitch history from a slightly different angle, check out "Rossz Csillag Alatt Született" from Venetian Snares 2005!).

After some discussion of ideas and approach with Tom, he sat and played and made some recordings for me, which I then chopped and build chords and structure around, sent them back to him to play over the top of again, and then back to me to edit and glitch the playing along with the nasty noises. My detailing process was that of finding some interesting sound sources (binaural recordings, drum hit samples, clangs and slams etc) and using some Max for live randomisation chains to generate lots of partially random complexity which I could then edit as audio before repeating the process with additional layers, eventually bringing the recorded piano audio in to the editing too.

At completion of the audio I was really happy to find out that Nick Cobby, one of my favourite video artists and long standing collaborator, was available and interested in working on the visual side of the project. He took the combination of seemingly incompatible opposites, and applied it visually with his beautiful generative forms, smooth and organic for the melodic sections, and jagged and abrasive for the percussive sections - big thanks to Nick for his amazing work as always!

So, that's probably enough ranting about this track from me, aside from why it is like it is, I hope it's something that you can enjoy irrespective of the conceptual faff.

Hot Chip estrena otro video y Four Tet remixa uno de sus nuevos temas

A mediados de julio, los chicos siempre listos para la pista de baile, o simplemente Hot Chip, estrenaron el video de Look At Where We Are, uno de los cortes downtempo de In Our Heads, su último disco. Bueno, ahora, hace un par de días en realidad, entregaron el resumen en imágenes para su nuevo single, How Do You Do?, canción en la que hacen honor a su fama de empedernidos bailarines.

Sin embargo el clip, dirigido por Rollo Jackson, mixtura tomas vintage y de skaters con otras de los músicos filmados sobre un croma para ambientarlos en diferentes escenarios, acuáticos en su mayoría. Nada que ver con la disco, claro.

En otro orden de cosas musicales, y retomando la balada Look At Where We Are, les acercamos la remezcla que el productor londinense Four Tet hizo del track. En ella no dudó en amputarle al original los sensuales  “oh-oh-oh-oh” para lograr un estado dance mucho más acorde al ánimo de discoteca.
