MH-034 Daedelus - Sundown “Sundown,” the single from Daedelus’ latest album, Denies The Day’s Demise, has been remixed by producers sympathetic to the song’s Brazilian-inflected rhythms and techno underpinnings. Current king of the party scene, Hollertronix’s Diplo, culls all of his influences from Philly to Florida, Baltimore to Brazil, to craft a favela flavored track of the first order; Eliot Lipp and Leo123, producing as Dark Party, turn in a tech influenced floor-filler; and Lulu Mushi layers buckets of Brazilian percussion, live instrumentation, and vocals, reworking the track into a sweet ballad that builds up to a frantic batucada. For those that enjoyed the Brazilian and techno fusion of Daedelus’ latest, this single will be sure to delight.

Something else which has more than a nod to other previous tracks is Daedelus' "Sundown." To our ears, it sounds like an organic take on the mellow braindance that came out on Aphex Twin's Rephlex label ten years ago, with its crooning Vocoded vocal and errie synth. That's definitely a good thing, though, and the track is easily the best on his recent Denies the Day's Demise. - Vice
