Ricardo Villalobos delivers his signature minimalism on remixes of Prins Thomas
As only the king of minimal could provide
Ricardo Villalobos lends his talents to not just one, but two remixes for Prins Thomas’ ‘Principe Del Norte Remixed’ album, which serves as a complete reimagining of the ambient originals.
When listening to the ambient soundscapes of Prins Thomas, it’s intriguing to imagine what a rhythmic savant like Villalobos would do to transform the material. Now we have been given a fine example in the form of two expertly crafted, psychedelic, minimal long players that showcase just how masterful Villalobos is.
Wonky, twisted clicks and a steady rhythm are what we have come to expect from the Berlin-based, Chilean producer and these remixes are littered with his signature motif.
Also included on ‘Principe Del Norte Remixed’ are remixes by The Orb, Gerd Jansen, I:Cube, Hieroglyphic Being and more.
Listen to both remixes by Ricardo Villalobos below and pick up ‘Principe Del Norte Remixed’, out now via Smalltown Supersound.
