MONIKA 050EP
|
This is the second remix 12" to be taken from James Figurine's classic Apologies album. A Kompakt triple-bill of DJ Koze and Superpitcher with Tobias Thomas complete the techno pop club-sandwich. DJ Koze's exclusive mix playfully experiments with the original, adding acid sounds, dropping the beat out altogether at times and warping Jimmy Tamborello's voice until it is almost unrecognizable. Superpitcher and Tobias Thomas deliver a danceable take on the album's opening track: their sequencing expertise make it truly club compatible. The eleven numbers "55566688833" spell "love" when written in SMS. And who can help but love the glorious techno-pop music of James Figurine?

James Figurine is the new project by Jimmy Tamborello (The Postal Service, Dntel, Figurine) and features contributions from John Tejada (Plug Research, Palette Recordings), Erlend Øye (Kings of Convenience), Jenny Lewis (Rilo Kiley, The Postal Service), Sonya Westcott (Arthur and Yu) and Morgan Nagler (Whispertown 2000). "So this record was supposed to be an extra melodic, minimal techno record with some sparse vocals. Instead, my technopop tendencies got the best of me, the songs slowly filled up, and this is what I ended up with. It's called Mistake Mistake Mistake Mistake, because that's what I kept chanting to the beat while I worked on the tracks. John Tejada (Palette Recordings, Plug Research) assisted me along the way, adding sounds to some of the songs, helping write and arrange a few, and then mixing everything in the end." -- James Figurine
