Björk - Biophilia Remix Series VII - Full Stream

Dubstep duo 16-bit broke up last week disappointing fans all over. Last year they produced Björk's Biophilia lead single Crystalline - as well as Mutual Core and Hollow. For the remix series 7 we get their alternate takes of the latter two. We like the added beats and Mutual almost sounds like an indie disco. Since we're spoiled rotten with innovative remixes now we wish B had given these babies to new people, not the original producers. You can't win 'em all. Stream below and for the rest of the series click here! Enjoy! Only one series left in the next two weeks!

Björk - Biophilia Remix Series V - Full Stream

Yesterday we traveled in time slightly and posted Series 6 of Björk's Biophilia Remix Series. Fear not! Series 5 is out today and available to stream below! We are so besotted and impressed! The groove in the King Cannibal remix of Thunderbolt is the stuff of dreams, preferably nightmares. We love it! The disharmonies and chilling sounds makes it clear why DJ Mag said this Berlin based DJ is the "modern master of the satanic sub frequency". It's one of our favourite Björk remixes of all time! There you go! Thank you Dylan Richards! We're equally impressed with the Alva Noto Remodel of Dark Matter. It's evident that Carsten Nicolai, the man behind Alva Noto, is an award winning sound artist - performing and creating installations in many of the world's most prestigious spaces including the Guggenheim New York, the San Francisco MoMA, Modern Art Oxford, NTT Tokyo, Tate Modern and Venice Biennale in Italy. Also something worth noting is that he does not use sequencers in his work. What it all boils down to is a passion for music and sounds - so hit those players below! Listen to all the remix series so far and let us know your favourites in the comments below! 

Björk - Biophilia Remix Series VI - Full Stream

OK, so to the best of our knowledge part 5 of Björk's Biophilia remix project is due to be released tomorrow. We however are busy listening to part 6 already since we found it online. Wow. GORGEOUS remixes by Björk's frequent collaborator Matthew Herbert. He's taken the very essence of each track and lifted them to new heights. We are so impressed with all the parts! What a wonderful project to have going over summer. Listen to Sacrifice (Matthew Herbert 'Pins And Needles' Mix), Virus (Matthew Herbert 'Fever' Mix) & Mutual Core (Matthew Herbert's Teutonic Plates Mix) below! ENJOY! For the earlier series head here!

Björk - Thunderbolt + Hollow (Current Value Remixes) - Biophilia Remix Series IV

Björk's Thunderbolt - one of our personal favourites off Biophilia - gets a shiny new suit just in time for summer courtesy of Berlin based drum n' bass producer Current Value. He's the man behind the Crystalline and Solstice remixes that kicked off this remix project in March. We're really into this take! We imagine being at an open air party in the very near future and dancing to this dreamy but hard soundscape and see a dimly lit night sky. So beautiful and fitting. Since these mixes dropped just a few hours ago we don't have a stream of Hollow yet - but will update the post asap when we do! Enjoy!

Björk - Cosmogony + Virus - Biophilia Remix Series lll

It's Monday - and yes it's time for brand new Björk remixes! Turns out we already wrote about one of 'em last weeeeek and thought is was a well crafted bootleg. But no! It's an official one! This week it's Biophilia Remix Series lll and it offers the heavenly take on Virus (Peaches and Guacamol Rework) by Scottish electronic producer Hudson Mohawke. We love the majestic sounds of it so. Pablo Díaz-Reixa a.k.a El Guincho is the man behind the Cosmogony one - he's a Spanish musician who is also known in Spanish speaking countries as an expert lullaby singer for children. We can definitely hear some traces of that in this chopped up but still gentle remix. Have a listen beloooow. For the series 1 & 2 click here and here! Original mixes here and here! Enjoy!
