about

Detroit's Francois Dillinger delivers a powerhouse dark, rolling electro EP on Woodwork with an absolutely stacked roundup of remixers. Known for judicious use of subliminal elements, Francois Dillinger's tracks invoke suspended animation and visions of steamy psychedelic haze blurring a backdrop of neon street lights.

'Poison Us' opens the set with a laid back spacious vibe. Stuttering kicks and claps keep the track pumping under gutteral resonant bass echoes and mysterious atmospheric swells.

'Black or Blue' hastens the operation with determined breaks and huge ominous synth accents. Cyclical arps drag the mood into the gutter, setting up a satisfying reboot of the full groove with some added punch.

'Replicant' exemplifies expert use of hit placement. A steady rocking break and percussive pulses push relentlessly behind vocoder echoes and dark minimal melodic pads. By this point any listener should be absolutely entranced and assimilated.

'Ergotized' amalgamates raw synth barks and drones with textured minimal breaks. This number serves up a menacing slab of repetitive elements, working well as a meditative ambient cut, or an atmospheric mix layer.

Fleck E.S.C. steps in with a freaky version of 'Poison Us'. A spooky suffocating barrage of dissonant string pads slices across Fleck's abstract beats... bass and kick creating a narrative with synth layer highlights that jangle, sparkle, and bounce through the syncopated punchy vibe. His added vocal phrases introduce a contextual twist.

Pip Williams tackles 'Black or Blue' with his signature pump and punch. Restrained 303 acid through an external filter provides an infectious hook, backed up by a set of techy stabs and spacious shifting fx that bring us in and out of transitions brilliantly.

At the summit of this monster EP, Jensen Interceptor puts 'Ergotized' on total blast with industrial and EBM elements crossing paths with heavy mid tempo breaks, dressed in modular clicks and analog drum hits. He adds some envious high wave hooks and pushes the dissonant strings one notch higher for a deeply effective powerhouse version.

Each remixer does total justice to the original cuts, maintaining the deep trippy vibe that is essential to the music, while adding subtle but strong character points to the revamped works.
