Hraach – Paseo De Los Tristes (The 2018 Remixes) – Ready Mix Records

Counting the 184th release of Montreal’s Ready Mix Records is a revisit to one of the label’s most notorious releases, ‘Paseo De Los Tristes’ EP by Armenian producer Hraach. The EP, originally released in 2016, has been re-invented with five fresh remixes by producers Britta Unders, Zone+, Salski, Sarkis Mikael and Rabih Rizk.

Berlin-based duo Britta Unders pushes the track into a deeper and darker theme that revolves around a classical piano melody, haunting strings, mystic synth accents, and a smooth melancholic new vocal that did not formerly appear in the original.

Bahrain artist Zone+ also remixes ‘Paseo De Los Tristes’ delivering his signature sound found in some of his previous releases from acclaimed labels such as ‘All Day I Dream.’ The remix accentuates crisp percussion loops and balearic-like strings turning the track into a hypnotic tune full of spiritual atmospheres.

Poland’s Salski lifts the tempo up a notch turning the original tune into a warm, sci-fi influenced rework driven by clean groovy drums, celestial pads and distorted synth-scapes that dramatize the musical territory while keeping an uplifting energy that evolves throughout the track.

Remixing ‘Bajo El Cielo Azul’, L.A. based Sarkis Mikael lays out a solid deep house groove and adds plaintive guitars and sweeping pads to create an expansive, desert-like soundscape.

Adding to the “desert” vibes comes the final remix of the collection from a producer who actually grew up in the Lebanon desert, Rabih Rizk. His interpretation is a richly layered and unmistakably middle-eastern influenced rework of “Bajo El Cielo Azul,” highlighting sonic mirages with thrilling vocal snippets and punchy percussion.
