Mochipet
Feel My China

An eclectic and abstract listen suitable for fans of uneasy listening.
It takes a certain kind of artist to merit the whole remix tribute thing. You have to have a certain credibility amongst your peers and a certain respect from your audience. And you have to have a bunch of awesome talented people that are just waiting to get their dirty hands on all the work that’s made you into such a worthy star in the first place. Mochipet is just such an artist who has met all these criteria and more, an enigmatic and acclaimed talent who has garnered more than a little interest and respect from those in the know. And wouldn’t you know it? Feel My China is a collection of remixes celebrating Mochipet and all of his mad skills.
The disc features a variety of abstract and speedcore beats (along with a few answering machine messages), all capturing the spirit of Mochipet, that particular eclecticism and je ne sais quoi that make him so groovy. DevNull contributes a manic take on "This Polka Will Only Hurt a Little," and Donna Summer/Jason Forest drop a heavy and abrasive mix of processed irregular percussion and vocal samples with "Backyard Skull Wrestling School." SkyMall provides a heavy slab of bass ridden neo-funk that stops and starts and does everything it can to prevent you from moving in an even remotely dance like manner. And yet, you can’t help but try because it’s funky! On the other hand, Duran Duran Duran are not funky at all, but they certainly have some mad breakbeat skills. My head hurts just thinking about it all, but in a good way, trust me on this.
Other remixes of note include Eustachian, who stand out as the only band on the disc to effectively blend polka, tuba, bloodcurdling screams, barnyard sounds, whip pads, and more in a kitchen sink approach to music which succeeds admirably despite competing sound sources. On the opposite side of the spectrum, Etschaberry use a wide variety of percussive elements on "Kinda Surprise Rmx?," all to maximum effect. It’s among the most accessible tracks on the disc, a reference point in the eye of the storm that reminds us that there is some order in the universe even while other tracks on the disc do a good job of trying to convince us otherwise.
As a whole, Feel My China is a great example of how remix discs should be done, a variety of styles and sounds that capture the spirit of the artist being remixed, while also imbuing the music with something new. Certainly something eclectic and abstract, Feel My China is the perfect disc for somebody who’s interested in a more uneasy listening experience

2 new reviews about 2 traxs I made ... The 1st italian :) and an other on funprox ...
Assai attiva in Olanda nell'organizzazione di festival, concerti, workshop e manifestazioni varie, divisa equamente negli interessi musicali, cinematografici e relativi alle arti visive, è la crew di Worm, che anche in questa occasione meritoriamente si distingue nel segnalarci nomi nuovi provenienti da quelle scene. Ben ventisette le incisioni audio in questo caso, tutte prodotte da artisti differenti, cercando di coprire un ampio ventaglio di proposte elettroniche e sperimentali, ora più minimal, naive-pop, improvvisative, ambientali o mutant funk, rifuggendo nella quasi totalità dei casi i facili approcci dei generi consueti. Si parte con le frequenze electropop lievi e devianti, targate Naughtyboy, seguite dal lo-fi fintamente adolescenziale e zuccheroso di Mejamyouspam. Ritroviamo Doddodo con le sue deliranti sequenze folk-plunderfoniche ed anche Ariel Bustamonte non scherza con i suoi jingles urticanti (roba alla Cock Rock Disco per intenderci). Ascolti non per tutti, è chiaro, schegge sonore impazzite, dove abbondano gli avanzi dei mercati di massa, nell'r'n'b perverso di Food For Animals, o nelle sintetiche derive della musica tradizionale di Etschaberry che con 'Tango 'n' Fective' coniuga il ballo argentino e il breakcore. Ce ne sarebbe ancora, siamo appena a metà, a voi però il piacere di altre sorprese.

The third and last chapter in the Polymorphik series is a remix album.
This time the record opens with two rather atmospheric pieces.
But don’t be afraid, after that Etschaberry throws in an evil twisted remix track.
Also A.L.F knows how to deliver crazy broken music.
His track is based on different pieces from the previous two records in this series.
On the b-side more strange rhythms are poured out over you, ranging in styles from hip-hop to gabber.
This third piece is probably good material for the dj's in the breakcore genre.
For home listening you can better turn to the previous two parts.
