Music News - Estère releases 'New Species' remix EP
25 September 2015 - 0 Comments
Today alt-beatmaker Estère
releases her debut remix EP New Species, with lead track from acclaimed producer and soul
musician Jordan Rakei. New Species contains the creative imaginings of a variety of producers including alt
prog-rock producer Grayson Gilmour, electronic beats producer Paddy Fred and
new-wave pop-rock band Encouragement, as well aforementioned Jordan Rakei.
The already released
remix of Patchwork Soldier by Grayson Gilmour, received profiling on prolific
blog site Afropunk, reached #2 on RDU’s top 10 and was also Base FM’s tune of
the week upon it’s release. Paddy Fred’s remix of I Spy made it to #1 on Radio
Active and was posted by numerous blogs including Afropunk.
Jordan Rakei's recent remix of Reptilian
Journey is currently receiving radio play throughout New Zealand and
is BASE FM's tune of the week. The remix creates a new species of reptile in
that it transforms the sparse scuttling layers of Estère’s original creation,
into chunkier synth infused funk alluding to a different type of reptilian
creature. Watch the music video of Reptilian Journey (Jordan Rakei Remix)-
by Renegade Peach Project here.
Of the collection of tracks off the EP Estère says; 'it was a really
interesting process getting each of these songs remixed, as an analogy- it was
like handing over a creature I'd created and it coming back somewhat familiar
but as a new and unexpected species, aka New Species - quite fascinating!'
All songs were taken from Estère's debut self-titled album, released in April
last year.
New Species is available from all digital stores today (exclusive of Europe -tracks will be released on 02.10.2015).
