After the tragic death of Pattie Blingh, Ramp has enlisted two of electronic music’s brightest young things to remix a brace of tracks from "Sagala", her free rolling space-beats-and-rhymes CD of last summer, and both are given the heaviest of heavy work-overs by these fast-rising production alchemists.
Netherlander Dave Huismans has established a solid reputation with his cyclic dark house releases as A Made Up Sound, and in the space of only a couple of 12”s as 2562, has managed to make both the techno and dubstep communities sit up and take note. His remix of "Brother : The Point" is an intricate web of reverbing rhythmic reinvention, weaving around and across dubstep currents by virtue of a hard and loose half-stepping future funk beat and massive sub-bass tones, pushing the album’s closing track into some dark Maurizio-influenced territory, and simultaneously turning in his strongest production to date.
Michigan oddball Samiyam is best known for his work with Flying Lotus as FLYamSAM on the 'Beat Dimensons’ EPs. Sam suffocates Pattie in his 8-bit world with spitting drums, NES chords, and compression misuse. His twisted translation of "To : Re" leaves more of the original vocals in place and stays within touching distance of hip hop zones while marking out resolutely left-of centre credentials with a woozy bass bounce and fractured drum patterns.
Also included is Samiyam’s instrumental mix. Limited pressing, and both sides are already getting broken out on a regular basis by Kode9, Flying Lotus, Joe Nice, Gilles Peterson, Craig Richards, Hatcha, DJ Pinch, Scuba, Headhunter, Kromestar, and Conquest. |
