Jazzpanese Remixes by Karcelen
Karcelen's Jazzpanese album gets remixed by Anika Kunst, Audio Werner, Johnny D, Cabanne, Roger Gerressen, and DJ Sandwich.
Barcelona-based Karcelen has long been crafting deep and minimal soundscapes, as perfectly exemplified late last year by his superb "Jazzpanese" album on Dreams On Wax. Now, it gets reinterpreted by a selection of underground names who are all stylistic references or close friends of his, which makes this such a unique project. They fuse a mix of old-school and contemporary sounds, all with their own identity.
The revered house talent that is Audio Werner kicks off with a remix of "Wanaka" that brings seductive basslines and silky synths to rolling grooves. Resurgent tech house innovator Johnny D then offers a Dirty Remix of "Hentai" that layers up popping synth details and squelchy basslines with whispered female vocals that make for a steamy and alluring vibe. Cult and veteran French minimalist Cabanne brings his signature infectious and striped black rhythm to a dubby remix of "Shinshi."
Dutch talent Roger Gerressen is known for his mastery of loopy rhythms, and that comes to the fore with his dubbed-out and well-swung take on "Kokubo," which is marbled with liquid pads and wet hits. Chapter Records boss and eclectic producer Anika Kunst then worked "Hentai" into a fizzing fusion of Detroit-style hi-tek soul and deeply rooted beats that worked a charm. Barcleona-based YALL, aka DJ Sandwich, then rounds out with a deft touch - his ambient pads swirl around an ice-cold minimal groove to a captivating and vibrant effect.
