Dub-obsessives gather techno’s leading lights for remix album
2006 | Label: Burial Mix / Finetunes

Dub-obsessed ghosts in the machine, Basic Channel's Mark Ernestus and Moritz von Oswald not only merge the spacetimes of dancehall and minimal techno under the moniker Rhythm & Sound, but even created their own one-riddim-album with 2005's See Mi Yah. For this remix album, they brought along the steeliest dancefloor producers to re-work the classic deejays, and so late-'70s dreads like Sugar Minott and Willie Williams get mixed up by producers like François K. and Carl Craig. Chilean DJ Ricardo Villalobos's remix of “Let We Go” sounds like Steve Reich running a taser up your spine, proving the spirit of dub to be very much alive.

Maybe not all are worth downloading, but the remainder are stunning.

Better than you think

This album is actually a lot better than other reviews indicate. Carl Craig's remix of "Poor People Must Work" is particularly good -- in fact, its the best thing on the entire album.

Excellent

If short on downloads get Truly (Vladislav Delay Remix), which vies with Carl Craig's track for my favourite here, plus the Sugar Minott track here, but then I've been a sucker for his voice since I first heard it, same goes for Willi William's, and processrebel's other 2 recommendations. If you like modern dub reggae get all of the album, this act are class. I've had this album for some time and still keep coming back to it, crank the sound up on your speakers, if you can stay still but are capable of dancing, you must have just worked at a manual job for 16 hrs non-stop or something similar, or you just don't like dub and/or dance music! Currently Let We Go (Villalobos Remix) is unavailable for download here in the UK, it is available at we7DOTcom for free.

More techno than dub.

Stand out tracks for me are: See Mi Version (Basic Reshape) -- Boss Man (Tiki?s Pure Blue Remix) w/ Walda Gabriel -- -- See Mi Yah (Hallucinator Remix) w/ Willi Williams. I absolutely love 'See Mi Yah', 'Artists' and 'Versions' but this is something completely different. Way more techno than dub.

They Say All Music Guide

Somewhere along the way, the mysterious duo of Mark Ernestus and Moritz Von Oswald decided to do something they’ve rarely allowed in their long and revered career: they decided to give a select group of artists the opportunity to remix their work. Throughout their purposely enigmatic past, Rhythm & Sound (also known as the force behind Basic Channel) have shunned the public’s request for a remix project, but with the release of See Mi Yah they’ve allowed the cream of the electronic music crop to take a stab at it. Contributions from Vainqueur, Soundstream, Paul St. Hilaire, and the Basic Channel boys themselves stay in the safe harbor of the classic Basic Channel/Chain Reaction style of dubbed-out techno that influenced a generation of imitators. DJ/remix legend François K turns out a surprising drum’n'bass-styled remix (a complete shift in direction from his recent forays into the dub and classic music that he spins at his N.Y.C. Deep Space residency), while Vladislav Delay and Ricardo Villalobos deliver mixes that are par for the course for their abilities. Carl Craig, hot off the heels of his epic remix of Theo Parrish’s “Falling Up,” also delivers another epic synth and percussion-heavy reworking that is among the best remixes he’s delivered in a while. There’s something here for everyone, regardless of electronic music tastes, and there is very little filler to speak of. It’s also indicative of just how far-reaching and influential Ernestus and Von Oswald truly are in the world of dance and experimental music — that they could assemble a remix project just as high in quality and consistency as the originals. – Rob Theakston
