Quincy Jointz funky debut album, Praia De Geriba has gone on to receive huge acclaim ever since its release on Greek label, Timewarp in May last year. Indeed it was such a success that the Greek electronic funk specialists decided to release a remix package of therelease. In turn, that was such a success that there is now a second volume of remixes of the album. Seven different remixers offer their own unique interpretations of the tracks that made the original album such a hit in a collection that spans house, nufunk and dubstep.
Opening with all the playful and uplifting feel of an original Quincy Jointz track is Hamburg's rising nufunk producer Funktomas who serves up a funky and skanking remix of "Trippin." Merging big beats, ska and funk, the German adds his own vibe to the track in the genre bending traditions of the label. Flashbaxx are up next with their remix of "The Place." A slick and groovy slice of house mixed with nu-disco, this is one of the more commercial, conventional tracks on the album. Onur Engin follows with his own nufunk remix of "The Place." The Turkish producer uses e-guitars, uplifting horns and some catchy saxophone hooks to create his electro slasher. Da Wiesel takes on the Brazilian hip-hop of "Super Hero" before Spaniard, Calagad 13 unleashes his 80s infused remix of "Hottie Party." "La Dub Musica" gets two dub treatments to close off the album. JazzKLippa's is a skanking, reggae styled piece of dubstep whereas High Fidelity goes grimier dubstep with dark, wobbling basslines.
This is an album that captures the spirit of the original album but crosses varying genres and styles whilst doing so. Totally fitting for a remix package for both Timewarp as a label and Quincy Jointz as an artist, this is a fun and exciting ride.
