Neutron Star MMX - Sharkweek Remix

Following the success of the original version of “Neutron Star MMX” as part of the “Deep Space EP” (out now on Cartoon Beats) in late 2010, Dunedin’s Sharkweek opens the account for 2011 and stretches and bends the space-time continuum to travel to another galaxy and bring back his own quirky ambient/psychedelic version of the tune.

The Mystical Tree - Remixes

We’re back with a bang, and the first release featuring new material is a duo of quality thumping remixes of “The Mystical Tree”, originally a downbeat track.

Sydney-based Nikolozi kicks the proceedings off with a stomping and teasing tech banger. Redsquad follows this up with a driving, but deep, fidget treatment of the original.

Darkness - NCMF004DD

…a more subdued and moody affair – “Darkness” is an unstructured and atmospheric piece of ambient music, built on synthesized strings, piano, ethereal pads and a music-box-like melody, portraying beauty in imperfection.

The XPNDR Rework, by John Woolfie of Lethal Sound Device, reconstructs the original as a minimal tech house number, that gets a bit of a thump going on.

Sensitivity - Remixes - NCMF003DD

The third retrospective release on newclear takes a turn towards the darker and heavier end of the spectrum with “Sensitivity” – produced together with nsu’s long-time collaborator Deliver Us From Evil from USA.

The “Toothache” cut switches up from downbeat dub grooves into a pulverising drum’n'bass onslaught, while on the flipside, the “Hard’n'Numb” mix, a version of less extremes than its counterpart, continues the drum’n'bass theme on the heavier end of the scale.
