This third installment on Martyn's 3024 imprint introduces Flying Lotus and 2562 to the label. Both have taken on a track from 3024-002 to remix in their signature styles.
In Flying Lotus' live sets, fans have been able to spot dubstep tracks from the likes of Kode9, Ikonika and Martyn, so it was only a matter of time before FlyLo himself would get on the 140bpm beats. In his "Cleanse" mix he takes the original elements through the wringer and squeezes out a deadly monster of a tune carried by a big moving bass line and odd synths. Meanwhile, dutch top chef 2562 took the Vancouver samples, boiled them, put them through a strainer and threw the remaining shards of sound in a bowl of warm bass, garnishing it all with a light hi-hat driven beat. The result is a haunting minimal roller for the early morning hours.
As 3024 represents music for the ears as well as for the eyes, Erosie brings his unique graphic style to the table, making this release another collector's item. Enjoy.
