Hauschka
Salon Des Amateurs Remixes
Boomkat Product Review:
When you think of Hauschka, certainly the first thing that comes to mind isn’t going to be pulsing Koln-strength techno, but thanks to this remix record your perceptions are likely to change. Opening the record in a flurry of Volker Bertelmann’s unmistakable prepared piano clanks, Kompakt boss Michael Meyer turns a sharp corner adding a thick 4/4 and rolling synth bass, reframing Bertelmann’s work absolutely. Bertelmann has managed something praiseworthy here in roping together a whole cache of artists working in a totally different sphere from himself to add their vision to his delicate tinkling. We have Alva Noto transforming ‘Radar’ into a typically bleak, electronic grinder, Ricardo Villalobos and Max Loderbauer crafting a 4/4 swinger from ‘Cube’, noisy electronic type Patten making a grimy tape-crushed racket from ‘Two AM’ and Vainqueur reappearing from the ether to add his slithering dub washes to ‘Ping’. The most surprising version comes from the recently revitalized Vladislav Delay, as we see Sasu Ripatti emerge from the success of recent banger ‘Espoo’ with a similarly spannered, dusty reimagining of ‘Subconscious’. Most of Bertelmann’s lightness and fragility has been eroded away, but the fingerprints of something human remain, just about.
