1. Wonderful Intro, seems to be of very emotional importance to you, can you tell us a bit more about it? 

The first two tracks are by Masayoshi Takanaka who’s absolutely amazing. The set also ends with one of his songs to generate the feeling of a full circle experience. I wanted to make the listener feel like they’re going on a journey and thought this album narrating the story of seven rainbow goblins along with Japanese Jazz Fusion, Psychedelic Rock etc. worked perfectly. I love how the very first track slowly transports you into this magical fairytale. 

2. There is a lot of Italo Disco & Synthy Pop tunes in your mix and we love it! - what is your relationship to these sounds? Geil! 

Yess I initially wanted this to be a Funk set, exploring different types of Funk music from a variety of countries, which is why a big part of the set has this funky disco sound. But I figured it would be fun to incorporate more such as Tuareg guitar and African Synth music, along with more classical electronic tunes by including Kraftwerk and Buttechno aha. The percussions and rhythms used in African music can be mixed quite well with electronic music and, having Nigerien roots myself, it was important for me to show that the African music scene is extremely varied and offers a lot more than the Folk or Afrobeat music people most generally think of. 

3. This is a very eclectic set - what was your approach before making it? In which set-up do you picture people listening to your set? 

Thank you ! I’d say curating actually took me the longest because I wasn’t entirely sure of the energy I wanted to bring, even if the funky bit was pretty clear to me. Because I wanted to mix different genres and create an experience with sounds from all over the world, I based myself on that to select tunes that I already wanted to use for a set, which is mostly how it came together ! I focused on the beginning and the end of especially more percussion heavy songs to figure out which  ones fit each other best and the rest naturally went from there. 
I haven’t really thought about the setting people would listen to it, but I mostly wanted it to be a musical journey, which is why I included so many different genres :)

Taken from Dilla's 2001 BBE Music debut solo album Welcome 2 Detroit, 'Big Booty Express' gets the remix treatment from German duo Âme, Parisian Pépé Bradock and London's Coda Deep.

Alongside the OG version these new productions add up to a six track exploration of Dilla's tribute to Detroit's melding of the Motor City's Black music heritage with Kraftwerk's experimental Euroelectro.

Contributing two mixes to the EP, Parisian producer Pépé Bradock AKA Julien Auger first forays into music were after learning guitar as a 14 year old and playing with various Jazz- Funk bands. At this time he also started DJing with Hip-Hop bands and turning his hand to producing their tracks.

As the 90s progressed he also discovered Techno and House music. His musical influences range from Jazz to Dub Reggae and he has remixed for Blaze, Cassius and Alex Gopher among others.

Also providing a remix of Big Booty Express is the German production duo of Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Beyer who work together under the name of Âme. After first meeting in Kristian's record shop in their home town of Karlsruhe and bonding over a shared love of Chicago House and Detroit Techno the pair started working together and producing records for Sonar Kollektiv in 2003.

The final two remixes on the Big Booty Express EP and only included on the digital package come from the Londoner Coda Deep. Influenced by avant-garde Electronica, Nu Wave and African Tribal sounds, he is a DJ and producer playing deep and melodic Tech and Techno and will also be known to music fans for his 2019 BBE release 'The Running of the Bulls'.

This EP of remixes sits very well alongside the catalogue of J Dilla releases on BBE Music and adds to the rich heritage of innovative beat making and music production that we can associate with Dilla and those he worked with.
