FJAAK 'FJAAKRMX02' 12"
FJAAK’s unleash heavyweight reworks from Robert Hood, Shed, and West Code!
FJAAK return with a powerful remix package, delivering fresh takes on a selection of tracks from their unforgettable 2024 album FJAAK THE SYSTEM.
Welcoming three standout remixes from some of techno's most respected names, REMIX02 sees offerings from Robert Hood, Shed, and West Code.
Kicking off the main remix package release, Detroit legend Robert Hood brings his unmistakable raw, relentless, and pioneering sound to the table as he reimagines FJAAK's Breathe Underwater. The genre-defining godfather serves up an undeniably signature cut flooded with euphoric energy, thumping grooves, rippling musicality, and spaced-out vocal injections, carving out an authentic Floorplan-esque peak-time jam.
Berlin-based artist Shed (one of the many monikers of established electronic stalwart René Pawlowitz) is next to feature, delivering another impressive spin on FJAAK's work, this time exploring his vision on Micro Expressions. An impressive blend of hypnotism and electricity, this bold remix echoes FJAAK's preference for cultivating huge dancefloor heaters that thrive on live instrumentalism and limitless energy. It's racy, groovy, and raw, building around rolling rhythms, warping layers of analogue sound, and intricate breaks throughout.
Argentinian talent West Code, winner of the Redemption remix competition, rounds off the main package with a huge interpretation of FJAAK's original mix. Almost bordering into tribal techno in places, its emphasis on groove and subtle South American influences create a unique remix overflowing with boomy low-end drive, piercing percussion, and mind-bending melodics—a real gem for the height of the party, irresistibly sinister from start to finish.
The Redemption remix competition drew an overwhelming response from producers worldwide, making it very difficult to choose a winner.
