Osiris Music UK’s thirty seventh release ‘Open Water versions’ sees the label taking an innovative, almost open-source approach to what could be a more conventional remix project, with four artists contributing their own unique perspectives to one anonymous track.  Hand stamped and numbered, strictly limited to 320 copies.

The ep’s opening salvo comes courtesy of Killawatt, who brings a dense combination of driving force and technical intricacy whilst Ipman imbues his version with urgent percussion and sense of cavernous tension. The second half of the release sees the debut of Osiris Music label owner Simon Shreeve’s Mønic project, the pummelling, cinematic sounds of which providing apt counterpoint to the staggered, churning techno of Metrist’s version which rounds up the ep. Early support from Laurent Garnier, Eomac, Bas Mooy and Paul Mac.
