festplatten33 – andi teichmann – refaded

a1 fades in loops
a2 they don´t care - hannes teichmann romantica mix

b1 tape - ada remix
b2 endscapes - dubmasta redub

the first remixes of andi teichmann’s autumn album, “fades” are released, just in time for the summer sun:
side a begins with 10 loops, cut by andi himself and featuring one loop from each track of the album.
after that, the record continues with hannes teichmann’s remix of “they don’t care”. hannes calls it “romantica mix” and romantic it is. he takes the original, featuring hans forster’s fantastic voice, deconstructs the individual sounds and chords and rebuilds them around bass and cotton. “they don’t care bout you? we do!” could be the new motto.
the first track on the b-side is an ada remix of “tape”. having chosen “tape”, ada uses another track with vocals by hans forster’s. while the original is pretty down-beat, perhaps comparable to the tranquility and dream-like quality of air’s music, the remix has it’s feet firmly on the dancefloor. it’s as if ada takes “tape” by the hand, smiles and whispers encouragingly: “come on, follow me, i’ve got something to show you!” you can distinguish ada’s personal touch, but still hear the heartbeat of the original track. everybody who maintains that “there is no soul in electronic music”, should definitely take a listen to this.
the second remix on the b-side is by dubmasta from kiev. he’s part of „foa hoka“, one of the first undergounddub and electronic bands in the ukraine. he has left his mark on the indie-ambient track. “endscapes” is transformed into a polyrythmic trip through the ukrainian underground. there are deep canyons of bass and high peaks to climb. sometimes the most unusual and challenging path is the best one to take.
