To honor the enduring appeal of a great musical rework, Hell Yeah is launching 'The Art of Remix'. This essential new series collects the best remixes from a range of label favorites. First up is Japanese downtempo master Calm with exclusive, never-before-on-vinyl versions of originals by Cantoma, Aura Safari, DJ Sofa's Dream Baby Dream, Seahawks, Gallo, Yuichiro Kato, and more. The release comes with rich liner notes by the authoritative Dr Rob from Ban Ban Ton Ton, and a second volume from Is It Balearic's Coyote will follow soon.Remixes have always been at the heart of Hell Yeah's output as a way of reworking classic sounds into different contexts, allowing artists to explore outside their usual remit and also to introduce new talents. Clam has long perfected the art with his famously laidback takes on all sorts of Balearic, house, dub and acid under the 'Mellow Mellow Acid' subtitle. He's remixed many a Japanese legend, but also a wealth of artists from across the world, and eight of those reimagined gems balance euphoria with solitude on this first volume.First, his take on Cantoma's 'Way to the Sun' infuses drones and chimes with bubbly acid. 'Sur Mon Balconett' shimmers with Spanish guitar and sultry sax, ghosts of yesterday still shuffling. 'Banana Trance' jolts with breakbeats while taking a Balearic leap into hedonism. Mininn's 'Vertigo' drifts dubwise, from monastic chants to operatic bursts. Maho's 'Bakuhatsu' growls dark and sleazy as acid and riffs collide, 'Abysso' floats with strings and sirens in symphony, 'Blue Surround' lulls before exploding with jazz fire and Kato's 'Kiss of Life' closes with a cosmic, romantic serenade. Calm's The Art of Remix sets a high standard for a series which will soon turn to Coyote and Scandi-house great Bjorn Torske.Tracklisting:A1.
