Chad Valley // Up and Down (FilFla remix)
aaamusic | On 13, Dec 2010
Known for his work as experimental electronic artists Fourcolor, Fonica and also as part of Minamo, Japanese musician
Keiichi Sugimoto, working here as FilFla, reshapes the twinkling Chad Valley single ‘Up and Down’ to highlight the track’s
exacting detail and innate beauty.
FilFla’s interpretation peels the song apart and then rebuilds it, using a collage of organic instruments that include a
xylophone, acoustic guitar, snare drum and others. As expected from Keiichi’s output, FilFla presents us with a remix rich
with orchestral textures and thoughtful layers of sound designed to be heard through a full set of quality speakers.
This remix marks the beginning of Cascine’s relationship with Keiichi. Additional projects are planned for the coming year.
Chad Valley’s self-titled EP is out now digitally and on 12″ vinyl.
