·

This is a remix I did for a K-OS remix contest. It's my first attempt at a remix. I replaced the drums and bass, added some organ, a percussive keyboard sample, real needle drop and record scratches and the old school break in the bridge. I also changed the tempo.  As of writing this I still haven't heard the original version!

bpm: 130

Dry with hints of juniper berry.
