I have remixed all five tracks from Jet Jaguar's Biddy Bids EP, and they're now available to stream / download for free from Bandcamp.
Jet Jaguar is well-known for the (often award-winning) remixes he's made over the years, but this is the first time he's had remixes done of his original music. This means I can safely say that these are the best remixes of Jet Jaguar that are currently available. The original Biddy Bids can also be downloaded for free from the Monotonik net-label.
And of course, mucho gratitude to Michael for letting me do this to his music.
I hadn't intended this as an EP, but I just had a go at every track because every track offered an opportunity to do something new and fun - whether it be making the gentle evanescent ambience of Jet's 'Disasters in Reverse' into a raw (but gentle) soul / blues jam; or turning the sly funk (as opposed to Sly funk) of 'Enjoy Mask Aesthetic' into an uprocking (but sly...?) block party jam and a psychedelic dub excursion (apologies for the copywriter language).
Once I'd remixed every track, I realised I could make them all available, and once I had decided to make them all available, it seemed a short step to make them available together. And once I'd set that up, it seemed a shorter step to put some cover art on Bandcamp. Even though a day ago I didn't want to give it a cover. I haven't made it an "official" Angry Rabbit deal, but at this rate who knows?
And finally, here's a video for the original track 'Red', made by Ned Wenlock. It got an honourable mention at the 2009 Handle The Jandal competition (it came 16th out of 200+ entries, but only 15 videos make it to the final - so it was as well placed as you can get without actually winning something). Here's what Ned has to say about it.
And if for some reason you haven't heard Biddy Bids yet, I guess it'll give you the chance to compare the original to the remix...
PS: This is an edit: it runs for 2' 20", while the version on Biddy Bids is 3' 48"... keepin' it short and simple...
