The music styles featured on "Remixes II" are ambient dnb, Amen, and downtempo.

Part two of the remix series starts with Dave Hoax taking on the Jungle influenced Without Purpose originally by Earl Grey. The signature pads set the background as Dave turns up the distortion on the drum breaks. The sub is low and rattling and the variations and edits on the rhythm are frequent.

Relapse’s rolling eight minute Drumfunk track from 2011 is transformed by Shins-K into a 4/4 grungy Techno track. The original drum break is splintered with filters and pitch shifts layered over the kick drums. The distorted pads surge in aggressively and then thin out into the background.

Fushara takes the title track from the Temnota EP in an uplifting introspective direction by adding new harmonies. As the number of layers in the harmony grows more complex, the percussion switches rapidly between the different drum kits.

Dissident slows down Nic’s track into a half-time version with a dubbed, sparse synthetic rhythm. The original tones and sound effects lurk behind synth stabs until nearly four minutes in when the jazz drumming fades in for the last crescendo.
