For those who tune in on a regular basis, you just may have noticed my recent obsession with this relatively (less than a year) new producer who goes by the name of Jason Taylor aka Aether. It was one of Jason’s earliest tunes, “Silhouette,” that first grabbed my attention with its uncanny amalgamation of electronic motifs. It deserves a listen if you haven’t had the chance yet.
From that moment on however, I knew Aether was a force to be reckoned with when it came to original, next-level electronic dance music production. And this next remix is exactly that.
Completely reinventing the original jam, “Sovereign,” by two other FTWubz Favorites, Kasbo and Just A Gent, Aether continues to step outside the box so to speak when it comes it song structure and progression. On this next remix, Jason’s spectacularly diverse set of vocal modulations, which include pitch bends, chops, and rearrangements, coincide beautifully with his ALWAYS lush downtempo melodies.
Honestly, listening to and becoming familiarly acquainted with the original will make this remix all the sweeter. Throughout his own rendition, Mr. Taylor engineers a way to highlight the more lyrically resounding pieces of “Sovereign” and incorporate them into his own unique electronic progressions. After listening, it’s hard to believe this remix even came from the original.
For me personally, consistency is also key. It’s one of the most important aspects comprising a great producer…or a great anything for that fact. Aether has not faltered in this regard whatsoever. In fact, Jason recently released another new track of seismic proportions on Borgore’s label called “Cognition.”
I took the the liberty of including it below.
