The recent discovery of a hidden trove of buried remixes offers a rare glimpse into the birth of the Downtempo genre and sheds new light on how to get the party started right! Last year saw Thunderball – the alter ego of Fort Knox Five’s Steve Raskin, Sid Barcelona and Rob Myers – come home to Fort Knox Recordings. While curating the re-release of their legendary catalog Thunderball uncovered a vault of previously-unavailable remixes dating from 1997 to 2007. These songs track the evolution of electronic music in Washington, DC as it was being blasted from the legendary Eighteenth Street Lounge and released on Thievery Corporation’s vaunted imprint: ESL Music.   

As one of the first artists to sign to ESL Music, Thunderball are fortunate to have two remixes by the label bosses and Downtempo progenetors themselves! Thievery Corporation offer up two remixes – both produced in the fertile, late-’90s era. “On Pop The Trunk,” they deliver a mid-tempo masterpiece, complete with chanting vocals, ’70s horn samples and a percussion workout that grooves as hard today as it did the day it was popped into the trunk. Their remix of “Hijack” captures that elusive, old-school trip-hop flavor which defined the burgeoning lounge scene.

One of the first remixes Fort Knox Five ever produced was “Heart Of The Hustler.” They turn the drum'n'bass of the original into classic hip-hop soul, a combination that would become the foundation of the FK5 sound. In the progression from Thunderball to Fort Knox Five lies JonH & Raskal, the tech-breaks side project of Jon Horvath and Steve Raskin. On “Domino,” they showcase their breaks chops with huge builds, funky percussion and bass grooves to create an epic and unrelenting funky breaks monster. Fort Knox Five then deliver their own version of ragga breaks on a remix of “Strictly Rudeboy,” increasing the energy of the original on this electro-ska stomper, creating a bass-heavy dancefloor gem.

Bombay Dub Orchestra upped the ante on their remix of “The Road To Benares” by adding masterful flutes, tablas and strings to the sitar and stand-up bass of the original.  “Stereo Tonic” was a big track for Thunderball and two great remixes are included here, the first by UK producer Boca 45 of Dynamo Productions.  Boca 45 heaps on loads of dirty-vinyl samples and clips, creating a retro-breaks anthem.  Taking the track into a deeper direction is Q-Burns Abstract Message who crafts a swinging, reggae-tinged dub-house groove for the dancefloor.

Not only have these tracks been meticulously culled and combed by Thunderball themsleves they have also been remastered to sound as good today as they were meant to sound when they were created. Declassified: Remixes ranges from dub and downtempo to house and breaks, drum'n'bass and global beats to nu disco… a breadth of genres and soundscapes that can only be: Thunderball.

Swedish songbird Little Jinder follows up 2010’s massive teen vampire anthem “Youth Blood” with another sweet and sinister single that’s sure to get stuck in your head and eat at your soul. Produced by Trouble & Bass label head Drop the Lime, this monster track features Josephine Jinder’s angelic vocals weaving in and out of a tapestry of dubstep and jungle-influenced flavors. This is an epic love song that flirts with tenderness and obsession: beautiful pads and shimmering synths underscore the verses while dramatic, billowing bass and demanding breaks swell throughout a dark chorus. “Without You” has all the drama, musicality, and suspense you expect from Trouble & Bass—and, like “Youth Blood,” it works just as well for radio as it does in the club. This one is guaranteed to be another memorable highlight of summer DJ sets from the world’s top names. (Don’t miss the videos of Jinder performing “Youth Blood” with 12th Planet to packed tents at 2011’s Ultra and Coachella festivals.) 

For this round, we keep it tight on the remixes, offering two totally different versions for all the bassheads. Swedish drum & bass legend Seba, most famous for his releases on LTJ Bukem’s Good Looking Records), delivers a lovely, emotional stepper with all the rolling snares, crisp hi hats, and truly massive bass and subs that you would expect from this liquid D&B don. Then we hit up this crazy character Myd from France’s Club Cheval, one of our favorite DJ/production/party crews. Young Myd slices and pitches Jinder’s voice into extraordinary shapes throughout this jackin’ cut ‘n’ paste house jam, with its long build-ups, submarine sounds, alarm-like techno synths, and percolating fever. Expect the unexpected, as this one’s got all the clever twists and turns you’ve come to expect from the always unpredictable Club Cheval. This is just the tip of the volcano for the unforgettable Jinder, who is currently working on her next single and a full-length album.

Released on August 16th, 2011
