ERNESTO
Ready for Data Reception (em0jiboy Remix)
[ Remix | 1 track | 2020]
Back in 2020, when lockdown hit us all by surprise, Granada-based artist ERNESTO debuted with "Ready for Data Reception", a three track EP full of dreamy electronic synth - pop melodies & glitchy details, that brought us all to vintage sci-fi landscapes with the contemporary air of Hyperpop. You can listen to the original song here below:
Pedro (ERNESTO) sent me the separated stems of his track to bring it to a new club-oriented context, when dancefloors all around the world were closed. I guess in some way, this meant hope when days only brought us uncertainty. Pedro has an incredible sensitivity for sound and I have always found an enormous beauty on the tiny little sound details he introduces in the most unexpected second of a pop song which always feel like a breath of pure fresh air. So rather than only using the melodic leitmotivs of the song, I focused on those textures and sounds to build this version.
Making this club-oriented remix to such a melodic song was for me a beautiful way to connect with Pedro and make something together in the middle of a dystopian situation who kept us miles and miles away for a long time. I signed this remix under the alias "em0jiboy" in case someday I release more dancefloor-oriented music.
Thanks for this opportunity, my friend.
