was recommended this one over irc a while ago and it came into conversation after i mentioned that i had recently seen jesper dahlbäck rocking out with just his drum machines, a tb303 unit and some effects. some other guy mentioned this guy known as erase and that he puts up videos of him rocking out with his machines.
i liked the clips and i recommend people to check them out (his youtube channel) but the person i talked to mentioned that erase done a remix of a kent song which was excellent. it was a remix of a song that i hadn't heard of but i did want to check it out.
kent is this swedish rockband who first started out very guitarbased but along the lines their 80's influences came into play and with their last music they went further more electronic and alot of remixes of their works started showing up.
erase's remix focuses on the electronic bit on the track and it's a section that really stands out on a kent song, regardless of if they decided to be more electro. it's like someone just added some berlin into the mix and erase expands on it.
what starts out as a moment of berlin in a rock-track becomes an exercise of harder techno, some flashes of acid and all sorts of lfo warbles. i really like the filterwork within the synths and machines used and i especially love when erase kicks in these small fills that sound like they wouldn't have been out of place in a megaman game.
