about

"Seen You Before" billed by the artist as "an attempt to make an accessible crossover between the underground and Pop music" is an unconventional and off kilter project. Is it needed ? Probably not...

The record starts off with a remix of Usher's late 00's "anthem" "DJs got us falling in love again"...the artist manages to flip the record into a melancholic, mournful and sexual track, taking the best bits from the original and deconstructing them into an essence ! Ace!

Moving further on, there are two tracks which turn Ariana Grande first into a sorrowful DnB roller with the "Night Night Mix" of Grande and Cashmere Cat's track "Quit" then into a frenzied and hazy Juke / Jungle crossover in an attempt to re-imagine one of the biggest tracks of 2019, Grande's "Thank U, Next"

Talking of the biggest tracks of 2019, Flipp Dinero's "Leave Me Alone" is given some Lo-Fi treatment to flip it into a cold Jungle earworm...the spoken word "Leave me the fuck alone" has you thinking of the remixers personal connection to the track and use of his trade to express emotions beyond the music.

The real standout for me here is the re-imagining of Agnes' "Release Me".Torn to shreds and turned into an almost unrecognisable track of its own, the artist manages to capture all of the euphoria of the original and turn it into a paranoid twisted fantasy.

This album is not going to be for everyone, many won't be able to see past the fact that the names Sam Smith and Ariana Grande sit on here but FML live a little...

After being initially weary of the concept myself, what the artist has done has won me over and with any luck It can bring a few fans of acts like Grande and Smith over to the "dark side"
