6: Primavera 707 (Decius Dub Mix)


The original and remix of the title track couldn’t be more different. The former a cosmic-tinged piece of spangly disco, the latter a percussive, tribal workout complete with a demon-invoking chant which is unrecognisable from the more subtle vocal of the original. Horses for courses and both very playable. The ‘Decius Dub Mix’ is a version of the original, rather than the remix, and takes things in a subtly abstract direction without great departure. The other two tunes, ‘Humble Brush’ and ‘The Great Body Buzz’ each employ varying degrees of acidic dissonance, with the former being a minimal, driving workout and the latter coming from a similar direction but using break beats as the frame on which to drape its transcendental cape.
