IAMWHATIAM (Tiga / MRD) (12" Remixes)

Regular price $22.98 CAD

The first single from Tiga’s acclaimed HOTLIFE album, “IAMWHATIAM” was and is a war cry, a strident demand for Absolute Brain Freedom. Now, that call for total liberation comes in three new interpretations from DJHell, Tensal and The Dare, arriving as a full remix EP.

“Remix packages are my favourite thing to curate,” says Tiga. “It’s a victory lap in a chariot pulled by people you respect. I can’t wait for you to hear what that sounds like.”

Central European legend DJ Hell applies dark studio trickery to the track, disorienting and overpowering the listener in the process and rendering a dense, fractal labyrinth. Tiga asked Hell to remix the track over lunch at the Hard Rock Café on the Platzl. Once he agreed, the two fell into conversation, trading electroclash war stories for several hours.

Tiga also enlisted Tensal, whose work with Exium and Komando Terrorismo Sonico combines with a solo practice of hypnotic, high-impact techno and analogue experimentation. As Tiga puts it: “But what you couldn’t possibly have known until now is that he’s Spanish.” His remix pushes the BPM to 140, driven by pagan trance rhythms and a biohacked synth line that may very well inspire some kid to code us the hell out of this damn digital panopticon.

Finally, The Dare returns with his own take on “IAMWHATIAM”, following his recent standalone remix. The New York-based producer and DJ has become synonymous with bringing the timeless dignity of 2000s blog-house back into contemporary club culture, with production credits including Charli xcx’s “Guess”. In Tiga’s words, the remix is a “brain-off banger that will transport younger listeners to a time before conception, a blessed mind-free state to which we shall all one day return”. He continues: “But until then, it is their generation’s responsibility to reckon with the sum of human history, and that very much includes Indie Sleaze.”
