Metallic Salmon Remixes

Following up his Faust EP, San Francisco’s Selande joins the roster of New York’s critically acclaimed label: Konque. Metallic Salmon offers us a glimpse of the colors on the palette if this eclectic San Francisco-based producer. The title track Metallic Salmon is a lazy two-step jam with jazzy underpinnings but don’t be deceived, the title tune is hardly characteristic of the rest of release. Selande takes a sharp turn into the shadows with Bus (Concrète). This track features a twisted remix from Detroit Underground labelhead and IDM wizard, Kero.

According to Selande, Bus (Concrète) was a field study in musique concrète. Aside from the kick drum and bassline, all of the sounds were recorded on the San Francisco bus system. They were later organized into a nostalgic look at the sweaty rave days in Detroit, Selande’s former home. Back to Back is a heavily stepped number full of bizarre sound design and tribal flavors. Stony and aphotic, Prometheus and iandai are a lovely pair. They are vintage dub techno tunes perfectly suited for either the dancefloor or the smoke session at home.

Here at Cunei we are offering an exclusive download of some of the remixes. Konque’s David Last, Detroit Underground’s Kero and Two Circles’ Simple bring us 3 mixes that will tide you over until the full length’s release on November 20th.
