Kermesse and Turu Anasi ignite the underground with Riders Remixes on Tellel, a three-track EP that recharges their chart-topping originals through the lenses of global talents. Following the massive success of the initial Riders package, which dominated Beatport’s Downtempo chart with One Day My Mouth Would Be a Trumpet at number one, these reinterpretations bring new life to the material. Adrian Schneider, Akira Arasawa, and To Ricciardi each deliver distinct takes that expand the originals’ emotional reach while fueling dancefloor hunger for house and downtempo selectors.
Adrian Schneider’s remix of One Day My Mouth Would Be a Trumpet dials into a laid-back groove, centering that unforgettable trumpet motif amid deep layers and reworked plucks. Soft pitch-delay effects and modulated vocoder leads create a warm pocket perfect for sunset sets or intimate club moments, with a rounded bassline and gentle piano weaving through for added immersion. Akira Arasawa transforms Diaries with his Tokyo modular wizardry, channeling BASTL Softpop into a playful, danceable house cut full of colorful motion and rhythmic surprises. It captures the track’s heartfelt core but amps it up for modern electronic crowds craving that forward energy.
To Ricciardi grabs Riders and rockets it straight to peak-time territory, building a driving club weapon around Roland SH-101 grooves, Diva synth layers, and ShaperBox movement. This version pulses with relentless propulsion, turning the original’s subtlety into a body-moving force that underground DJs will spin endlessly. Across these three tracks, the remixers honor Kermesse and Turu Anasi’s vision while injecting their own underground signatures, making Riders Remixes a must for those who thrive on fresh angles in downtempo and house.
Tellel has built a solid reputation for spotlighting emotive electronic releases that blend downtempo introspection with club drive, consistently delivering cuts that chart high and resonate deep in the scene. This EP underscores the label’s knack for curating remixes that feel essential, bridging global artists in a way that keeps the underground pulsing with innovation and energy.
