Presented here for the first time are 10 of the best remixes we had done for Detachments. From the legend that is Andrew Weatherall to the Fabric slamming Martyn to the early Daniel Avery in his Stopmakingme guise this is all killer, no filler as the saying goes. Turn on, turn up. Enjoy.

They Came From The Stars I Saw Them were the first signing to Thisisnotanexit Records after I saw them play a show in Hoxton. They ended with The Unstoppable Kite which sounded like Can's Mother Sky crossed with Carl Craig. In fact we tried to get Carl Craig to remix The Unstoppable Kite but he wanted over ten grand which was a bit much.

They made some awesome music. Not for everyone. But the remix collection presented here for the first time removes some of their wildness which in some cases widened their appeal but in some cases removed some of the charm. Either way there are some killer remixes here from Mungolian Jetset, Holy Ghost, Optimo, Serge Santiago and Emperor Machine. Enjoy.

Even before we started Thisisnotanexit Records Optimo were a huge inspiration and getting Keith to remix the first single we put out was a dream come true. And then in 2009 we put out a release by Jonnie Wilkes / Naum Gabo's project. A limited 12" featuring a remix from Joakim and two Naum Gabo edits of a 23 minute remix that Tim Goldsworthy (The Loving Hand/DFA) had done.

The original version was never released.

And the 23 minute version was never released. Until now.

Its an epic sprawling remix in 6 parts which starts like the closing credits to Blade Runner and featuring snippets of distant echoing voices before a different voice intones "We are change. We are no longer the same" and that staple DFA-esque rhythm comes to the fore.....6 minutes in we hit a low slung punk funk disco bass...9 and half minutes in and it zones out to a strings and synth melancholic interlude interspersed with bubbling acid before it charges into what seems like a completely different track and bassline.....evil laughter.....a guitar solo....a female vocal....HEY!....the last 6 minutes of pure piano house hands in the air joy that sounds like the brother and sister to Westbam's Old School Baby.

I played this at Optimo when I was lucky enough to be asked by Keith and Jonnie to DJ there and people lost their sh8t to this.

I'm putting this up for a weeks....get it for £1.99 before I take it down.

Its unmastered and from the Thisisnotanexit unreleased vaults (aka a battered harddrive of remixes and demos). Enjoy.

We are change.
We are no longer the same.

Naum Gabo Pictur (The Loving Hand Remix Parts I-VI), released 12 December 2016 We are change. We are no longer the same.
