After last year's popular 'Soft Vision EP' Tropics a.k.a. Chris Ward releases this prelude to his debut album due in the Autumn on Planet Mu.

The hotly tipped Keep Shelly In Athens have remixed 'Mouves' by trimming down the track to it's minimal parts, cooling down the atmosphere and adding a heavy Boards-Of-Canada-like synth melody and chords that sound like they’re borrowed from an early 90’s ambient trance track. This is all held together with heavy, cracking grime-like snare.

FaltyDL showcases his first new material since the ‘You Stand Uncertain' LP here, with this 'Mouves' remix which breaks the parts down into micro-samples and then re-edits and twists them through a subtle bumping beat and bass: it feels like he’s just taken a microcosm from the original’s wild, tropical macrocosm and studied it in detail.
