Aquasky & Meat Katie - Overneath remixes

  • Share
  • The lead single to Aquasky's Teamplayers upcoming album, Overneath gets the remix treatment courtesy of Friendly to cater for the breakbeat heads and also DBridge for the drum'n'bass massive. Side A. Overneath (Friendly Remix) Friendly takes the bassline in its original form and layers it over a signature Friendly break - very similar to the one used in Bump & Grind. For those who haven't heard it, he uses very subtle kicks and thin snares to create a somewhat mellow break with plenty of crossover appeal. Apart from a few variations in the bassline melody and a bigger breakdown there isn't much difference with the original, other than the fact that this has more syncopation in it. Side AA. Overneath (DBridge Remix) Upping the tempo to a whopping 175 bpms, Dbridge's remix goes on a much different tangent taking the bassline and giving it a complete overhaul - a new melody and the bassline progressively gets darker and harder as the tune progresses, yep the Viagra is working! The vocal stabs play a bigger part and a few dark synth sweeps get thrown into the background as well as the introduction of new electro stabs. While Friendly's remix is aimed for the breaks heads, it really doesn't offer much other than a breakbeat. You'd be better off with the original tune and it's harder beats.
