Remixes III

Youtube Playlist (6 videos)

Remixes III features Drum and Bass tracks from the last five years of Pinecone Moonshine. Consistent use of inharmonic ambient sounds mix with echoes of jazz and funk setting the backdrop for broken breakbeats.

The LP opens with Asymmetric’s Remix of “Off Topic” by K-Chaos. Drumfunk style break work and warm bass notes roll out over a warbling lead trumpet and inharmonic ambient sounds. Jegbee rebuilds Metro’s minimal track “Box” as a Techstep roller keeping with the original heavy kick drums as the main rhythm.

A motif of surf music introduces Metro’s remix of Nic TVG’s “California”. Metro slices the original into a splintered, fractured assemblage of sounds.

dgoHn compliments the lo-fi recordings of “Putting a Glass Away'' with new melodies and harmonies. As if looking hopeful to the future, the added layers calm the hectic 200 bpm pace of the swirling drums. (This side of LP ends with a couple minutes of field recordings of rain in Portland, Oregon.)

Booca plunges into the dense layers of inharmonic sounds of DYL’s “The New Kid”. The off-kilter, periodic waves of snare drums are carried by the rhythm of the bassline melody.

The progression of Dr...um’s remix of “Seed Coat” by Fr.om can be likened to driving by buildings late at night. By introducing moments of space, “Seed Coat” transforms into an introspective, almost ambient Jungle track.
