Description

BBE are back with the freshness with some future classic styled remixes of the late great J Dilla.

Taken from Dilla’s 2001 BBE Music debut solo album Welcome 2 Detroit, ‘Big Booty Express’ gets the remix treatment from German duo Âme and Parisian Pépé Bradock.

Alongside the OG version these new productions are an exploration of Dilla’s tribute to Detroit’s melding of the Motor City’s Black music heritage with Kraftwerk’s experimental Euroelectro.

Contributing two mixes to the EP, Parisian producer Pépé Bradock AKA Julien Auger first forays into music were after learning guitar as a 14 year old and playing with various Jazz- Funk bands. At this time he also started DJing with Hip-Hop bands and turning his hand to producing their tracks.

As the 90s progressed he also discovered Techno and House music. His musical influences range from Jazz to Dub Reggae and he has remixed for Blaze, Cassius and Alex Gopher among others.

Also providing a remix of Big Booty Express is the German production duo of Frank Wiedemann and Kristian Beyer who work together under the name of Âme. After first meeting in Kristian’s record shop in their home town of Karlsruhe and bonding over a shared love of Chicago House and Detroit Techno the pair started working together and producing records for Sonar Kollektiv in 2003.

This EP of remixes sits very well alongside the catalogue of J Dilla releases on BBE Music and adds to the rich heritage of innovative beat making and music production that we can associate with Dilla and those he worked with. Full tracks in the player/
