Pitched up and transformed from down tempo head-nodder to leftfield dancefloor soul, here is quaid’s take on a Flying Lotus killer.

THE DEEP RANGE 3
mixtapes_ quaid
Best known for his excursions into the outer limits of scifi electronics and freaky remixes, J Quaid returns this week with a mix highlighting the influences and aspirations of this aspect of his sound. It’s a head-y brew of deep detroit flavoured soul and futuristic afro rhythms boding well not just for the deep range series as a whole, but for the ’soon come’ releases of this mighty (yet barely known) collective of musicians.

edits
When you are as singular in your approach to a certain kind of groove as we are at basilika towers, there is a danger that the cut ends up going too deep, too dubbed out. That in trying to highlight the ‘good stuff’ you end not leaving enough room for a track to breathe. The magnificent Danny Krivit has certain golden rules concerning edits, one of which is to ensure to leave enough contrast and variety within a track as it’s sometimes the lack of a groove that gives a track the highs and lows to make it a classic.
Of course I ignored all that with this cut.
It’s all the bass and synth and dubbed out fx with everything else left on the side.
(at least I’m consistent)
