OVERVIEW: Note: Every vinyl copy of this record contains a voucher entitling the customer to download all eight remixes as MP3's. The release of Kelpe's "Ex-Aquarium" album back in February 2008 was met with a swathe of critical acclaim and followed by a series of incendiary live shows, all of which have clearly informed the wondrous cast of remixers. Gallic synth fetishists Zombie Zombie (Versatile) take time out from their on-going live rampage to deliver their first ever remix – a complete remake of "Bread Machine Bred" into an endlessly building epic. Fulgeance (Musique Large) brings the sub bass to "Stop Parching Yourself", creating a booty-fied, dancefloor romper that slips and slides like a frogman in the shallows. "Shipwreck Glue" gets strung out on Californian sunshine courtesy of Wes Coats (Rong), who infuses the original with balearic disco energy reminiscent of Studio or Mountain Of One. Next up, fellow beat mongerer Architeq (Tirk) takes on the same track, adding extra crunch and swagger to this manphibian anthem whilst Kelpe himself remakes "Shipwreck Glue" and "Whirlwound", adding percussive energy to create a pair of dance floor bombs! The Boats (Moteer) bring a mellow side to proceedings, taking the lambent tones of "Colours Don't Leak" and swaddling them in delicate cello chords and an ebbing 303. Lastly DC label mates The Oscillation divert their gaze away from the cosmos and towards the deep, adding extra weights to the already heavy "Cut It Upwards" and taking it to deeper depths! Watch out for Kelpe playing live dates across Europe soon.
