Four remixes from Birdguy’s album Niet Zonder Reden by Igor, Dwaalgast, Far Out Radio Systems, and swills.

Igor: "I haven’t stopped chopping breaks since I was introduced to Squarepusher and Amon Tobin about five years ago at the Conservatory of Utrecht. Having followed Alois (Birdguy) as he dived deeply into his musical passions for about the same amount of time, this seemed like the perfect opportunity to release my first electronic track/remix—encouraging one of my closest friends to keep looking after himself. <3"

https://soundcloud.com/dwaalgast108: "I love Birdguy's melodies and atmosphere. With this remix, I wanted to create a laid-back trip-hop dub without his vocals, focusing more on a certain '90s vibe, accentuating specific sounds, and making it more hypnotizing."

Far Out Radio Systems: "The Jacobian Smoke remix is a trip-hop-like track, containing a lot of Metasonix filtering and effects. I absolutely love those raw synths. I dedicated the remix to my precious son, Jakobe, the sunshine of my life. And linking this back to the song: if you don’t appreciate the rain, you don’t deserve the sun. ;-)"

swills: "For this remix, I was on a quest to layer the original vocals with my own in a very rhythmic and playful electronic landscape."
