Jahcoozi's current Album Barefoot Wanderer must surely rank amongst the biggest surprises of the year at this early stage. Whilst it plays masterfully with all genre expectations, it is nevertheless a prime example of coherence.
In keeping with the album, unpredictability also features heavily on the first single release. It takes us by surprise with the album opener ?Barefoot Dub? - where a dub beat and 4/4 kick are fused logically into a unique and danceable form - and the hysterically cheerful and adorable ?Close To Me?, a song which is in fact about the not so cheerful topic of loving and longing for Heroin.... s A) Jahcoozi's highly unconventional interpretation of ?Close To Me? is taken to another level of abstraction by Brazilian DJ/production duo and Minus family member Click Box, who also skilfully blend in elements of ?Barefoot Dub?. The pair almost effortlessly pull off the feat of retaining the hysterically absurd mood of ?Close To Me?, even though the sound of their remix, with its oldschool electro beat and nervously flittering filters, is light years away from the original. B1) No less surprising to the ears is the extremely quirky dub-house-electronica blend of the antagonistic sound tinkerers Object Object / Raw Milk, who hail from the dubstep/grime epicentre of North London. Whilst the latter is still regarded by most in Germany as a blank slate, Object Object aka Mark Rutherford has already picked up remixer credits for Unkle and Yapacc in his previous incarnation as a member of Repeat Repeat. Their ?Barefoot Dub? mix has an oppressively skewed feel.
It's laden with a peculiar energy and most certainly not from this world! B2) Planet Mu hero Steve Milanese has put the brakes on his breakcore-heavy mash-ups. Here he appears in a relatively moderate mood and even surprises us with a song-like structure. His congenial ?Close To Me? remix is even a trace closer to the original than the Jahcoozi edit. The focus is on the vocals and wonderfully cheesy sounds which once more - following his Planet Mu hit ?Double Face? with the singer Kate Kestrel - demonstrate Milanese's talent of writing genuinely catchy songs. X) The digital track completes this extremely diverse remix package with an instrumental version of the Object Object / Raw Milk track ?Barefoot Dub / Close To Me?. Identical except for the absent vocals, this version feels a touch lighter and more spacious.
