Four brand-new remixes by four different musicians/producers with different biographies and backgrounds. To create new interpretations of their debut mini album "Twice Upon Two Times", featuring a wide range of influences without losing too much of the generic and special JSBL temper was kind of a guideline in the preliminary stages.
"Twice Upon Two Times Remixed" starts with a funky head nodding mid-tempo version with very significant vocal samples. It´s the version from „Der Mann mit den Schwankungen" ("The Man with the Fluctuations") by rare groove, hiphop and dope beat specialist Urbs from the legendary viennese G-Stone label.
The next one is a home fixture. Dorian Concept - one out of four @ JSBL and in charge of mind-blowing keys/synth lines. This dude who is frequently in action with his liveshows presents one of his earlier works. His remix of "The Flu" is a really punchy and crispy floating roller with deep chords.
Responsible for the epic "Parental Square ´79" rendition is the accomplished Bristol based producer and bassplayer Crackazat. He transformed the bizarre original into a striking slow shuffle broken house tune that will stay on your mind like premium Wimbledon strawberries with whipped cream.
Sam Irl is a high-profile producer from Bavaria with an affectation for synthesizers, samplers and vintage drum computers. Most of the sounds in his "Jimbo" treatment were created on a MPC and so it proves to be a reliable groove machine for almost every club from Singapore to Buenos Aires.
