In May 2021 Moby released his debut Deutsche Grammophon album 'Reprise'. This collection of acoustic and orchestral arrangements of a personal selection of music from his 30-year career went on to enjoy global chart success and widespread critical acclaim ("Classical, fortified, triumphant" We Rave You). Exploring the terrain where electronic and acoustic sounds meet, Moby and other leading artists have now reimagined some of these tracks for Reprise - Remixes.
The tracklist of Reprise - Remixes features an eclectic array of contributors, from Bambounou, Biscits, Max Cooper, Efdemin, Anfisa Letyago, Mathame, Planningtorock and Topic to Felsmann + Tiley, Peter Gregson and Christian Löffler. It also includes four majestic remixes from Moby himself.
The album starts with Tallinn-based English electronic musician Planningtorock's take on the Reprise cover of David Bowie's "Heroes". The sheer range of musical responses to Moby's work can be heard in the very different versions of "Porcelain" created by German producer, visual artist and musician Christian Löffler, Paris-based techno/house producer Bambounou, and German DJ, producer and musician Efdemin, who supplies both a remix and a dub remix.
Other highlights of Reprise - Remixes include a haunting reinterpretation of "Extreme Ways" from synth-composer duo Felsmann + Tiley; producer, composer and cellist Peter Gregson's reimagining of the same featuring solo cello; and Topic's upbeat take on "Natural Blues". Moby too has reworked "Natural Blues", as well as creating equally stunning remixes of "The Great Escape", "We Are All Made of Stars" and the iconic "Go".
