STR4TA - STR4TASFEAR Remixes

Gilles Peterson hand picks a number of producers close to his heart to rework tracks from STR4TA’s sophomore LP STR4TASFEAR. The compilation features brand new reworks from the likes of up-and-coming London producer Wallace, who has been setting the city alight recently with a string of releases and appearances with the formidable Rhythm Section, and old heads like STR4TA’s very own Bluey. Also included are some previously released remixes from Demus and Ruf Dug to make the package complete.

While STR4TA is fundamentally a live music project it has always had one foot firmly in the club. The history of Brit-Funk and Rare Groove has always evolved in tandem with the way electronic dance music has developed in the UK. It is woven into the DNA of the band - through Gilles Peterson’s early work with Acid Jazz and Talkin’ Loud and Bluey’s forays into club culture with Incognito. These remixes display that DNA front and centre, turning STR4TA’s songs into bass heavy club cuts while retaining that quintessential Brit-Funk flavour.
