A project I worked on earlier this year has been in the tubes for awhile, and has just been spat out onto the internets: PORTISHEAD REIMAGINED. It’s an album consisting of remixes entirely sourced from Portishead’s album Third; released for free by my Chicago peeps Noise/Floor Crew.

The track I did is called Threads; it’s a dreary downtempo slow burner I attempted to rework into a dreary uptempo banger. Came out a little more strobe lighty than I was going for—and I did have another version in the works but I it went way too far out there into pitch slide arpeggio-land.

Anyway. Here’s my track:

Portishead - Threads (Flufftronix remix)

Check out Trash Menagerie for links to the rest of the tracks individually or just grab the .zip and call it a day.

*(yes I know it’s actually called Portishead Reimagined, but when I downloaded it I coulda sworn it said “reimaged” so imma go with that)

  • Subdivision: We Are Heavy Bass.

    Ts! a “dreary down-tempo slow burner” ~ he! But you’re right ;) But the best dreary down-tempo slow burner they have ever made. Anyway, I can say, you have been successful, your rework is “a dreary uptempo banger” and my personal favorite (like the o-song :). Thank you! *
