IT FEELS GOOD TO BE OUT OF THE RAIN


I really laboured over this mix. Serious tweak status. Hope it paid off. Starts off with a Rist remix that sounds like Fela meets Sonny Sharrock and then slams into Rainbow Arabia (again.) Love this tune, takes me back to Bow Wow Wow and Hayzee Fantazee. I kind of really went for a Cosmic feel... as I've been listening to a lot of Daniele Baldelli. I tried to use some of his phasing techniques, but in a modern fashion. Listen to his shit... he was eons ahead of his time.


This is worth it alone for the dub of Africa... with only subtle touches from me. For closers, that Todd Terje re-edit of America. There's a reason it's popular, it's the shiznit!







EVERYTHING RISES






Rist - Morning (Phased and Konfuzed)
Rainbow Arabia - Holiday in Congo
Monotony - Danger Song
Optimus Crime - Danger Song
Sferro - Republique
Y.A.C.H.T. - So Post Em All

Key of Dreams - Africa (Dub Mix)
America - Horse With No Name (Todd Terje Edit)

Delish for buds and gardening. Been feeling Africa. Reading Kenya true crime, another earlier brit invasion. Hallie Mathers' the bomb.
