Oké - Oasi (Deserto Remixed) - Vinyl LP

Brand New Stock, Remix album for Oké's Deserto featuring nine interpretations of tracks from the original with a focus on the dancefloor alongside some abstract beats and rap. Oasi (Deserto Remixed) features two groups of transatlantic contributors: Shigeto, DJ Dez, and Sterling Toles from Detroit; Populous, Godblesscomputers, DJ Rocca, and Silvano Del Gado from Italy, all close friends of the band. The remixes are rounded off by two versions from the man behind Oké, Andrea Visani, under his Katzuma and King Dumitru aliases. The library music, cosmic jazz, and afro-house vibes of the original are retooled into a variety of dancefloor friendly productions: Shigeto and Silvano Del Gado invoke the tribal spirits of Ochosi Ayilodà; Dez turns Il Venditore di Elastici into a warm and comfortable chugging groove; Populous zeroes in on peak time ecstasy with his take on Queens of the Supercolony; Rocca injects electro funk into Tarantula; and Katzuma keeps it slow and funky with his refixes of Tamahaq and Sons of Cabil
A. Balancing all these are two mellower contributions, with Godblesscomputers flipping The Secret Baile of the Maharajas into a laidback roller and Sterling Toles transforming Serir into a haunting song of remembrance. Released on single 12" vinyl with seven of the nine remixes (two edited for length) and artwork from Andrea Casciu.
