Kit Sebastian - Kit Sebastian Remix '2020

Tracks list

Mr Bongo is proud to present three unique reworks of Kit Sebastian. Each of the
producers featured in this package created their own interpretation of the
lo-fi-hi-fi’ originals and have taken the duo’s sound into bold
new directions.

When it came to choosing who should remix Kit Sebastian, Natureboy Flako (Flako
/ Dario Rojo Guerra) was a producer at the top of our list. Keeping true to the
original, whilst leaving his own stamp on the track, his mix adds break-beat
drums and middle-Eastern guitar riffs that transform the track into a more
cinematic piece. It sounds to us like the music from an exotica dive-bar scene
in a David Lynch film - which of course, is a very good thing.

Producer and DJ Baris K, who was behind the awesome İstanbul 70 series
(re-edits of classic Turkish gems), takes ‘Durma’ in a very
different direction. Totally reconstructing the track, his remix has flipped the
original and totally run wild. The results are an epic left-field electronic
workout. By bringing the spoken-word vocals to the forefront and giving the
track a darker industrial vibe, it wouldnt sound out of place bouncing around
the walls of a Berlin basement club at 5am on a Sunday morning.

The pairing of Kit Sebastian and Halal Cool J grew after DJing together at the
alternative Great Escape party at the Mr Bongo HQ in May 2019. They share a love
for dusty old psychedelic Turkish records. Halal Cool J (aka Aly Jamal / Don
Leisure) has released records on First World and is a co-member of Darkhouse
Family with Earl Jeffers. For his interpretation, he has delivered a
mix-tape-collage with a hip-hop aesthetic, and rather than focusing on remixing
a specific song, he has cut and paste his favourite elements of tracks taken off
the band’s Mantra Moderne’ album.

Available in 2 limited-edition, hand-numbered sleeve designs.
