For the first remix excursion from Louderbach’s Autumn LP, Troy Pierce and Gibby Miller have assembled an inspired cast of international producers to interpret the album’s closing track Shine. Miller’s vocal performance recalls the cathartic Joy Division/New Order crossover period in both texture and mood, exuding both vulnerability and danger. As a remixer it’s the type of track you can really get your teeth into and it seems to have struck a chord with all the artists involved. Subsequently these unique, personalised remixes seem to channel Millers’ lyrics into something of a recurring mantra, achieving heightened levels of intensity, that compliment the original song. JPLS is definitely in the mood for dub over the course of his two mixes here, drenching the vocals in reverb and submerging them in a sparse, shuffling groove full of vibrant shakers and hi hats that shimmer in the darkness. As the groove takes shape the vocals spectacularly crack and splinter under the weight of the thumping bassline while the urgent, chirping melody maintains a detached yet constant presence. The Hard mix is a more intense variation on a similar theme, this time round the vocals are barely recognisable, pitching up and down in waves of distortion while the monotone bass and kick unify to hammer the dancefloor and the abrasive percussion parts With the controls set firmly for the heart of the sun, Alexi Delano turns in a hi -octane workout full of dramatic shifts and freaky sounds. If dancefloor unity is what you’re seeking, this tune will do the business as the flanging percussion and twisted organ of the intro section drop away to reveal a bass riff that’s pure fire. No frills no fuss – it’s a bomb, with the cut up, processed vocals doing further damage in the break down. Just as intense is Seth Troxler’s scratchy, feverish interpretation complete with breathy, resung vocals that lend an additional air of tension to the track.
