Various Production vs. Dave Cloud: Puff Rider
![]()
The Fire records/Various Production partnership in dark mash-up continues on from VP’s dark-as-a-haunted-cave remix of Gerry Mitchell and Little Sparta’s Feasting On My Heart, and their remix of labelmates Puerto Muerto’s Boy (“shocking in its scope”- Boomkat).
This time around is more upbeat (relatively speaking), as evident in Bonesy’s more playfully disturbing cover. Sonically, it’s nasty rather than dark; it’s a stormer of electro-popping stomp warped by Dave Cloud’s characteristic breathy and gravelly vocals and attitude. The lo-fi original on side B (from last year’s Napolean Of Temperance) is a distorted disco classic karaoked by a loose-screw genius. |
