Here are some of the most recent examples of my sonic redistricting and ear-borne tomfoolery inflicted on a variety of highly suspicious artists and labels. The wild part is, I might also be able to do this to you.

Q-Burns Abstract Message Remixes: 2010 - 2013

Musiq

new track from the upcoming album "Messages from the subconscious" by sozika

Today Never Ends

A somewhat dreamy remix I produced for San Francisco duo Cubik & Origami, of a cool track called "Bought & Sold." I've always liked Origami's vocals so I was well up for this remix project.

I basically just used the vocal hook, repeated, and a couple of synth pads from the original. I wanted a bayou-like flow to define the track, to give an aural impression of calmly reaching some destination. The mid-section is a bit I'm particularly happy with ... it's quite the patient build. I've had some DJs tell me this part can be a bit frustrating but, trust me: try it on a loud system with a dancefloor inhabiting the deeper zone and the track is quite effective. 

This is out now: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/213118/Bought%20%26%20Sold

Once again, as a reminder, I’m always up for remixing if your label or song is in need of something like the above. Feel free to contact me here: qburns@q-burnsabstractmessage.com

This is a remix out just now via <A HREF="https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/216601/missing_you">Beatport</a>, a little re-twisting of a gorgeous track by my good friend <A HREF="http://www.myspace.com/robotkarate">Brett Johnson</A>. Maybe the ante gets up'ed when working with good friends as this turned out to be one of my personal favorite remixes I've ever done. I'm crazy about it.

The press release for this describes it best: 
"Imprisoned studio warlock Q-Burns Abstract Message was on hand to complement "Missing You" with a suspiciously spacious remix. Drawing inspiration from a pile of broken King Tubby records, Q-BAM's version rattles within a moisture-soaked cell block, building into an analog epiphany further enhanced through a steaming, dusty spring reverb box. Totally slinky for the dancefloor, it aims to beguile the rarely hypnotized."

Aha! 

As stated above this is out right now on <A HREF="https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/216601/missing_you">Beatport</a> and will be available everywhere else on March 2. It's been released by the exquisite deep house label <A HREF="http://www.EIGHT-TRACKS.com">EIGHT-TRACKS</A>. You should also check out Brett's original on the release (as well as other remixes by <A HREF="http://www.allandbyallo.com/">Alland Byallo</A> and Brett himself) ... you can do so by clicking <A HREF="http://soundcloud.com/eight-tracks/sets/missing-you">HERE</A>.

Bruce Springsteen - State Trooper (Trentemøller Mix)

PREMIERE > inverted-audio.com/premiere-smbd-nuwhat

Back on Steven Julien's @apronrecords with 'Moon Theory', Stanislas delivers a compelling three-track slice of washed-out harmonics, ambient-leaning electronica and other off-key ear delicacies. Our pick, the dreamy analogue jam 'Nuwhat', is the most openly floor-friendly cut of the pack with its debonair train-like groove and moony radiance. Upon a sleek veneer of glimmering pads blows a breezy flight of detuned synth shards whilst tapping percs and shuffling drums stir up the dust. Right in the feels!

We are delighted to present this special pair of tracks from Spanish producer and DJ Kiko Navarro, previously only available on 12" vinyl, repackaged for digital release with a brand new remix from Eddie Niguel.
Opening track 'Twilight' will need no introduction for crate diggers and 80's club kids. A complete remaking of the Maze classic, Kiko's version raises the tempo into deep house territory, retaining the dreamy, sensual feel of Frankie Beverly's original.
Rising star of the electronic scene, Singaporean Eddie Niguel's rework of 'Twilight' transforms the track into a tight, insistent house workout. A highly creative re- imagining rather than a straight up remix, it's easy to see why Eddie can count the likes of Disclosure, KiNK & Sasha among his fans.
Steadfast torch-carrier for the true sound of House music, Kiko Navarro has been DJing and producing for over two decades. A much-loved figure across the Balearic Islands, Kiko's regular sets at Space Ibiza opened the doors for gigs all over the planet, returning home to maintain his residency at Pacha Mallorca, now in its tenth year.
As well as creating a host of bona fide club classics such as 'Siempre', which is still played heavily today by the likes of Jeff Mills and Derrick May, Navarro has delivered highly successful albums for Pacha and Renaissance, not to mention a bucketload of collaborations and remixes.

The bulging eyeball of, one can maybe assume, <A HREF="http://www.myspace.com/scotthardkiss">Scott Hardkiss</A> portends some serious "Beat Freak" action. It's a freewheeling cut on Scott's <A HREF="http://godwithin.com/site/?p=49">Technicolor Dreamer</A> album enthusiastically giving shout-outs to folks of all shades, no matter how neon, because, when it comes down to it, we all dig freakin' to beats (yes.).

Scott hit me up to remix "Beat Freak" and I happily obliged. There was an original version of my remix that I toiled on for 4 or 5 lonely days. Long story short, I decreed it "not freaky enough" and in a calm tantrum erased all evidence and started over from scratch. 24 hours later I had the remix you hear above.

I liked the implications within the synthesized vocal and visualized it as a bullhorn announcement. A sort of world music bounce is applied for a global "everybody's in the club" feel. The beats and bass line are kept overly simple, serving as anchors for everything around them. The keyboard solo and emulated fretless bass were last minute ideas and make up my favorite section of this. Celebration time. I'm into it.

Upon completion I immediately had an idea for an alternate version of this. Thus we have the dub which you can listen to here: http://soundcloud.com/q-burns-abstract-message/scott-hardkiss-beat-freak-q-burns-abstract-message-dub

I've been playing both of these out in my sets and they seem to work really well for the floor. I rarely have tracks of my own that I enjoy playing out (I know ... it's a producer/DJ thing. It's very silly.) so this is fun. I hope you dig it as well.

There are other cool remixes of "Beat Freak" by Paul Woolford, Fort Knox Five, and Scott Hardkiss himself. You can grab it now from <A HREF="https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/248234/Beat%20Freak%20EP">Beatport</A>, <A HREF="http://www.traxsource.com/index.php?act=show&fc=tpage&cr=titles&cv=56472">Traxsource</A>, <A HREF="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/beat-freak-feat-the-prophetz/id367778766?i=367778770&uo=6">iTunes</A>, and many other digital shops.

Here's a remix for San Francisco DJ dude <a href="http://www.residentadvisor.net/dj/jpsoul">JP Soul</a> and the newly re-launched <a href="http://www.roamrecordings.com/home/">Roam Recordings</a>. 

Remix notes: Many of the elements from the original have gone a bit topsy-turvy here; reversed, effected, distorted, stomped upon with boat shoes. One listener detected a sample from a science fiction movie but it was the wrong movie and the wrong sample. That said, there's something from some PBS advertisement that's been recorded out of the TV speaker by accident while the mic was hot. Don't even try … you'll never guess. I'm also playing a synthesizer I'm holding in a single bare palm at one point, so that's a bit of an accomplishment. Yes, there's a cowbell. Thanks for noticing.

This Backsliding EP has three cool original tracks by JP Soul in addition to my remix. You should check it out. It's available right now from <A HREF="http://www.beatport.com/release/backsliding/919852" target="_blank">Beatport</A>, <A HREF="http://www.junodownload.com/products/backsliding/1976074-02/" target="_blank">Juno Download</A>, and <A HREF="https://www.stompy.com/Ep/371708" target="_blank">Stompy</A>. It's also going to be out on 12" vinyl very soon, which is amusing as I already artificially added some vinyl pops.

A cozy remix produced for Alland Byallo's Nightlight Music label and supercool up-and-coming San Francisco act Dead Seal. I sort of imagined this mix as like floating down a long river, encountering various things along the way ... much like Captain Willard or Aguirre did.

Dead Seal - Take Me Away (Q-Burns Abstract Message Remix) (Nightlight Music)

Here's a bleepy remix commissioned by the Apollo label for their fine act Peluca. This one's a bit of a speaker rattler, with that growling, filtered bass and all, and the only secret I'll give up is that the programmed drum track was inspired by Babe Ruth's "The Mexican." Oops … I've said too much!

Taken from the album Modo (The Remixes) by Peluca, available on the Apollo label. Get it from <A HREF="http://www.beatport.com/track/modo-q-burns-abstract-message-remix/4028130" target="_blank">Beatport</A>, and <A HREF="https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/modo-the-remixes/id589634620" target="_blank">iTunes</A>, and loads of other fine digital shops.
