about

Copy by Dr Rob @ banbantonton:

Brighton-based Higher Love Recordings have licensed the track, 'Bibbles', from local lads Andres y Xavi, and handed it over to Jezbell for three radical reworks. The original was a chunky, mid-tempo chugger, where machines mimicked tropical timbres, cicadas sang, circuitry chirruped, and someone went crazy with a cowbell.

On their 'Pots & Pans' mix, Jezebell reimagine the tune as something much more boisterous, with building blocks and beats that are semi-industrial. Gears whizzing and clicking, sections spinning backwards, forging an abstract funk that struts its stuff somewhere between J. Saul Kane's Depth Charge and Weatherall & Tenniswood's 2 Lone Swordsmen. The crickets get swapped for something stranger, more alien, and the vibe's that of funky 'Balearic' alternatives, such as Andrew's re-do of Meat Beat Manifesto's 'Psyche Out'.

The 'Bubble & Squeak' mix is bass-led and basically beatless for its first few minutes, blasting dancers with laser-like synths, before launching into a smoother, sleeker, sleazy sonic narcotic. Sexy and suggestive, with its provocative pulse pounding, it has the same slo-mo electro-erotica feel as Spooky and Billie Ray Martin's classic cover of Throbbing Gristle's pervy Persuasion.

The 'Baubles & Beads' mix also seems to reference the roster of William Orbit's Guerilla Records, in this case the collaged, fascinating, rhythms of Coil / Psychic TV collaborator, John 'Sugar J / Mekon' Gosling. Behind some fine funky organ, the OG's vocal refrain, of 'Find another time and space' is shredded, and subliminal, while slamming freestyle snares salute Arthur Baker for a bit of planet-rocking breaker's revenge.'
