After the release of the Mindstate album, Pete Philly & Perquisite are back with Remindstate, a totally remixed version of their critically acclaimed debut. For Remindstate Pete & Perq approached DJs, groups and musicians they loved from all over the world, which resulted in an even more eclectic release than the original Mindstate album. The Remindstate EP features a selection of five, mostly club-oriented remixes taken from the Remindstate album; all of them previously unreleased.

Side A kicks in with a very nice tribe-flavoured house remix of Motivated by upcoming Dutch producer Crackman. Next comes an incredibly funky remix of Mellow by Morgan Spacek, main producer of UK-based trio Spacek, who gained underground fame with their classic 2nd album Vintage Hi-Tech. the Last track on the A-side is an introspective remake of Lazy by Atlanta-based Hip-Hop-group Collective Efforts. Besides the three MCs of the group the remake also includes a totally new verse by Pete Philly.
The B-side of the EP opens up with a remix of Cocksure by famous Dutch house-producer Laidback Luke, who is known for his remixes for Roger Sanchez, Moodymann and Daft Punk. After this explosion of energy the EP closes with a Latin-flavoured Hip-Hop-remix of Cheeky by DJ PCM, the first official release from this upcoming Dutch beat creator of whom well certainly hear more from in the future. Full album available on CD.
