Technology (Remixes)

LDLDN's 'Technology EP' released on Natural Frequency Records in 2022 received plenty of justified praise from DJs, record buyers and everyone in between.

So, like any self-respecting technologist, it made sense to give the record a reboot….an upgrade. Get it running in 4K rather than HD. Overclock the processor a bit.

Brought into the lab to do this are three of the UK's most respected producers, who have put their own unique spin on the original EP and taken it into a deeper dancefloor territory.

Press play and first up is Mr Beatnick (Mythstery Records, NTS Radio) going direct-to-disc with his remix of 'Technology'. It's got that 'New Jersey bump', with intricate, flowing drums wrapping around his signature synth-work.

'Machine Code' is given the deepest of deep house treatments by Galaxy Brain (Soho Radio), with a real Larry Heard feel about it - the highest praise possible. Twinkling piano, sprinkled over soft pads and shuffling drums make this remix utterly listenable.

Flipping over the cassette you'll find a typically club-ready remix of 'Haptic Feedback' from Drumskull (Hooversound / Aaja Music / Threads). His bassy, breakbeat driven sound perfectly re-interprets the original, serving up a wild, bone-shaking breakdown that needs to be heard loud.

Finally, Natural Frequency label boss LDLDN rethinks 'Digital Love', throwing it into a more Detroit techno mode with his usual soaring chords and uncompromising drum patterns. Watch out for the change midway through!

The EP is totally a reflection of the Natural Frequency label - fun and emotive music.

The Mr Beatnick remix will be released on DSPs on 18th August 2023. The Drumskull remix will drop on DSPs on 25th August 2023. The full EP (Remixes) will be released digitally on Bandcamp and all DSPs on Friday 1st September 2023.
