Slowdive - 5 EP (In Mind Remixes)



SLOWDIVE
5 EP (In Mind Remixes)
1993 Creation Records

Slowdive, the shoegazing giants from the early 90's, have their track “In Mind” taken to the cleaners by Bandulu and Reload on the 5 EP. Bandulu take the minor chords and stretch them into a dub-inflected whirlwind. But the standout is the Reload mix: a shimmering, blissful track with downtempo rhythm and futuristic soul. Breathtaking.

02. In Mind (The 147 Take - Reload Remix)

James Vs. The Sabres Of Paradise - Jam J


 
 
JAMES Vs. THE SABRES OF PARADISE
Jam J
1994 Fontana
 
Notes :
When the Sabres of Paradise take you on a journey, they really take you. They rework James' Jam J into a one, long, languorous dub journey, back in the heady days when "chill out" actually meant something. It's time to kick up your feet for the slow, shuffling beats during the Arena Dub" and digital blippery during the "Amphetamine Pulsate." By the "Sabresonic Tremolo Dub" more of the guitars come through, but still in service to the reverb. Finally, the "Spaghetti Steamhammer" rolls in like a Western on Quaaludes.
(review by scoundrel - Discogs)
