Elemental Remixes vinyl

As the title suggests, this 12" from the Stones Throw camp opens up the material from Chrome Canyon's Elemental Themes LP to remixes from an illustrious cast of producers you wouldn't necessarily associate with Peanut Butter Wolf's label. Parisian trio Chateau Marmont lend "Generations" some panpipes infused tropical resonance, whilst Aaron Coyes of Peaking Lights leads "Chasing The Dead" towards a typically second hand dub sound. Whomadewho's LA transplant adds to the synthesized epicness of "Car Fire On The Highway" with his own percussive glee which leads nicely into the more club friendly flips on the B-Side. Brooklyn based Saarid channels the spirit of EBM and New Beat on his recasting of "Memories Of A Scientist" which sounds like a chemically enhanced Nitzer Ebb with Moroder on vibes, whilst the White Wizard himself, Gavin Russom, somehow mutates "Branches" into what Justice might sound like if signed to DFA. Italians Do It Better boss Mike Simonetti lends this plate a more sombre tone with his remix of "Chasing The Dead".
