On September 24 Japanese producer Emufucka will release his second EP ‘Retrace’ on Fremdtunes, after his previous release ‘PlanarRift‘. One of the remixes on the EP is done by Dutch artist Coco Bryce. And here’s a preview of this boneshattering track!
And Quarta 330 (Japan) also did some amazing remix-work for Emufucka:
Kelpe remixed the title-song of the forthcoming mini-album ‘The Machine Regrets‘ by Pierce Warnecke. He transformed the original into an electro-magnetic-disco-funk-dancefloorkiller. ‘The Machine Regrets’, which is a follow-up to the previously released ‘The Machine Serves‘, will be out on January 19th 2012 (FR2012-02).
A lot of water falling from the sky, so it’s time for another Weather Fremdcast.
We’d like to kick off with some more news on SEE-A-SOUND. The first results (soundbites and sketches) of the collaborations are to be viewed/listend to on www.seeasound.com. Mister Adam and Coco Bryce ping-ponged chopped up audio-files and graphic forms. Boris Tellegen screen-printed, during the Dutch Design
Week, his reaction to DJ Mace’s dusty, offbeat sound-design. And it seems that Attak and Grazzhoppa formed a new superhero-team. Find out about the collaborations right here: http://seeasound.com/samenwerkingen/en/ and Thefindmag introduces you to the project right here.

To promote the new music release by OptiMace “This Music Is Not Music” (FREE), on Kitchen Dip, Kitchen Dip and Fremdtunes are holding a contest! This contest is based around the song “Invasion of the Lettermen”, a track (ft Erwin Vann & Shycop) which is the result of a collaboration between DJ’s/producers OptiMace and graphic artists Mashville. DJ Mace & DJ Optimus took turns with Dr. Jay & Mister Adam (Mashville) to create the musical & visual combination. The CD & Silkscreen Poster are very rare, only a handful were pressed.
