Previous remixes in the Nightmares on Wax 25th anniversary series – from the likes of Special Request and JD Twitch – have been fairly reverential, sticking to the sweaty spirit and sub-bothering bleep techno feel of the original material. Here, Ricardo Villalobos and Max Loderbauer take the opposite approach, turning in radical revisions that recast “Aftermath” as a minimal techno after-party anthem. There’s very little of the original present, though what is used – most notably the vocal, cut-up and reversed, plus a few notes here and there – is brilliantly woven into the fabric of their wonky, 18-minute Dub. Adventurous DJs should check the thrillingly odd Electric Jazz Version, which re-animates the track as a quirky tech-jazz wig-out of epic proportions.
