Fels, known for his mastery of broken beats and UK Garage, opens the EP with a dynamic reinterpretation of Hideous. The track bursts with rhythmic complexity, driven by syncopated beats and an intricate bassline that anchors its free-flowing structure. Liquid DnB textures meld seamlessly with glitchy percussion, creating a lively yet introspective soundscape. Fels’ touch is unmistakable, offering a rhythmic density that compels the listener to dissect its layers with each replay.
Neuchâtel-based composer AUST takes Mayahem into cinematic territory, blending downtempo electronica with ambient sensibilities. The remix unfolds like a narrative, its analog synth textures weaving a spellbinding atmosphere. AUST’s work is both hypnotic and emotionally resonant, with drones and subtle bleeps providing a meditative backdrop. This track stands out as the EP’s introspective moment, offering a break from the frenetic energy of the other remixes while maintaining an immersive presence.
Owelle’s interpretation of Primal feels like a sonic journey through a surreal, dark circus. IDM-inspired glitch and breakbeats take center stage, their unpredictability lending a sense of controlled chaos. The track is theatrical and daring, with rich textures that suggest a world of bizarre, enchanting characters. Owelle’s ability to marry haunting atmospheres with danceable beats is masterful, making this remix a standout moment on the EP.
Closing the EP, Berlin-based ASERET delivers a deeply hypnotic rework of Anthropo. The remix is an analog-rich odyssey, blending downtempo grooves with shimmering drones and subtle rhythmic shifts. Its atmosphere is darkly luminous, inviting listeners to lose themselves in a maelstrom of sound. ASERET’s approach is minimalist yet evocative, demonstrating a delicate balance between restraint and expressiveness.
