Friday marked the release of the epic 20 track remix EP of Louis The Child's track with K. Flay, "It's Strange." With mixes from Boombox Cartel, CRNKN & The Knocks, among others, it was SoySauce's mix with it's creeping strings, recalling the Goosebumps theme, that stood out the most.
I first came across SoySauce late in 2014 when I heard their remix of Sir Sly's "You Haunt Me," so competently produced, it was the track I used to test out headphones when buying them that Black Friday. It's that strength of production with floating and playful plucked strings on top of bumping bass drums, complete with just the right amount of atmospheric synth work, that sets this mix apart from the others. It's subtle yet sultry, never offering too much or too little, finding the perfect balance of bass and beauty; those strings pulling at our defenseless hearts, evoking a flood of emotions. Pick up the SoySauce flip along with the other 19 remixes, with all of the proceeds going towards the charity, Kiva.
