There is a new EP just out through Wakaan. Liquid Stranger’s bass label is taking ‘Babatunde’ from PEEKABOO and G-Rex and giving it six fresh versions. The original was released in 2018 and has almost half a million streams to its name – we were feeling it.
Each remake on this EP lives up to expectation. PEEKABOO and G-Rex make a triumphant return with a VIP version of the mix, and it builds suspense from the offset before hitting you with the drops. Dirt Monkey utilises rhythmical depth on his version, whilst there is an epic energy to Eliminate’s which chops and changes rapidly.
Both TYNAN and LUZCID contribute the next couple of flips, with the former’s filling us with joy thanks to its deep, textured instrumentals. The up and coming duo um.. are given the task of rounding off the Babatunde EP, and do so with wonky beats and meandering shards of melody.
G-Rex says of this release: “For this remix EP, we went out and handpicked not only some amazing artists, but our great friends as well to remix our track. Each remix comes with their own unique style that makes the entire package cohesive and interesting.”
