Unique 3 – The Theme (ZILLA Remix)

Unique 3 – The Theme (Fat!)
1. Autechre Remix
2. ‘ZILLA’ Remix

 

 

 

Probably one of the most influential British techno records of the last two decades, Unique 3’s ‘The Theme’ was a brutal modernist slab of speaker destroying bass and sonar bleeps. Cited as an influence by everyone from LFO to Goldie to The Chemical Brothers, this genuine rave classic provided a particularly British response to the sounds coming out of Detroit in the mid to late eighties.

Now re-issued on Fat! Records, this beautiful little 10″ of red vinyl contains mixes by the legendary Autechre and GoW’s ‘ZILLA’. Having had these mixes rattling around on our iPods for over a year now it’s great to finally see them in the shops. Autechre, slow the whole thing down and murk it up a notch, whilst ‘ZILLA’ turns in a skittering electronic robo-hip-hop jam that absolutely kills it on a large system.

The vinyl is horribly limited, something like 500 worldwide, so buy now or be damned to watch it go for stupid money on Ebay.

Please Allow Me To Introduce Myself…

Gods Of War chief wrecka King Cannibal has just dropped a new mix on us and the sun may be shining but stick this bad boy on and it’ll soon be all thunder and lightning. 40 minutes of bruising jungle, electronica, breakcore and dancehall ‘Intro King Cannibal’ is more than just a statement of intent, this is a declaration of war.

Set for release next week, The Chop on Lo-EB is a 4 track EP of remixes of everyone’s favourite art rockers The Chap. It’s a tough package with refixes from Hot Chip, Pier Bucci, Vincent Oliver and our own ‘ZILLA’ who has turned in a surprisingly un-aggro version.

As usual for anything involving the Lo boys the whole thing comes in some great packaging (check their LOAF series for the ultimate in plawsh award winning design) but should you be one of those hyper modern types who care little for such things it should be up on Bleep.com soon too.

You can listen to all the tracks here, and it looks like Phonica are right on the ball and have copies in already for purchase here.
