Another week, another remix package. This time it’s five versions of Peder Mannerfelt’s ‘Sissel And Bass’, a track that first appeared on the ‘Daily Routine’ album and is, compared to the remixes here, something deconstructed and post-impressionist. The versions on this release are much more cohesive, making use of the original’s motifs to lesser or greater extents. The deadpan vocal by Sissel Vincent is the dominant trope, with the pounding beat, high-pitched whoops and occasional deep “bass” vocal snippet orbiting, ready to pounce when needed. It’s an interesting package, but apart from the Perko Dub, relatively one dimensional. Still, the OnScreenActor Remix more than does the business, as does everything else, depending on your level of confrontational techno tolerance.
