Three tracks from Wajeed’s ‘ Memoirs Of Hi-Tec Jazz’ album get the remix treatment, but will they be “Hi-Tec Jazz”, who knows? ‘Mark Broom’s rermix of ‘Right Now’ is a lovely collision of loops embellished by Detroit chords and a sax which sounds a tiny bit like something playing in the corner of your local wine bar. Great bass line and once it oicks up the pace, not bad at all. ‘The Ballad Of Robert O’Bryant (Yazzus Remix)’ has what sounds like a tuba pumping away in the background, giving the track a jaunty feel, something which is placated by the analogue warmth that underlays it from about a third of the way in. Again, it’s a quick one. ‘Memoirs Of Hi-Tec Jazz (feat. Black Nix) (Jensen Interceptor x Assembler Code Remix)’ is a piece of electro, sharp around the edges and the track with the greatest sonic clarity. It becomes more abstract towards the end, which is when it’s time to mix something else in.
