Fresh Air Remix
Of course, the original version of Air featured Doom over a Dabrye beat – a sparse, Vangelis-like affair with ethereal synths and minimal 808 drums. It had a certain kind of beauty but one that’s fairly remote and cold. Imagine if it had been made with warmth though and, well, funkiness, (Krash Slaughta must have thought, prior to making this) – you know – like hip-hop was, back in the day. I mean you could get rid of those robotic drums for one and bring in something organic. You could ditch the Bladerunner synths and install some looping non-lyric female vocal harmonies couldn’t you? Maybe add in some quietly jangling funk guitar, a bit of rumbling organic bass, some scratching and – ooh yeah – some aircraft (not to mention aircrew) sound effects and with Doom’s usual impenetrable bars over the top and this thing would absolutely fly! And no doubt fly off the shelves too – especially given there are only 200 blue and 150 black vinyl 7″ copies with the instro on the flip.
