about

“First thing is I love Bonobo’s work, so I was excited to have been asked to remix ‘Heartbreak’ for Si & Orlando. We spoke on the phone about the direction that I wanted and felt I should go, and they just trusted me with what I felt as long as I put my swinging beats and vibe to it. We were all in sync with what they were looking for and what I do and I think we’re all happy with the result, I hope you like it too!” - Kerri Chandler

“I’ve been a longtime fan of Kerri’s. He felt like the perfect person for this remix. He called me from the studio and played part of the remix to me on the phone. It was so exciting to hear what direction he was taking with it.” - Bonobo

Bonobo and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs’ “Heartbreak” is an ode to one of electronic music’s formative scenes: NYC’s disco revolution of the 1970’s & 80’s. It’s a scene that was hugely influential on a young Kerri Chandler, and was an important precursor to the house music of which he would go on to be a formative figure.

The now legendary American producer and DJ delivers a tough four-to-the-floor remix of the breakbeat-driven original. The reworked track features many of the original core elements and maintains its focus on the iconic sample of Christine Wiltshire’s refrain “I Can’t Take The Heartbreak” from the ‘83 disco anthem “Weekend” by Class Action, delivered over Chandler’s signature swung rhythm and bass.

The remix follows the release of ‘Heartbreak / 6000 Ft’ 12”, with the a-side described by The Guardian as a “nostalgic, ravey alliance” and KCRW as a “sweaty, euphoric masterpiece” the track was added to the BBC Radio 1 playlist, was named Annie Mac’s ‘Hottest Record’ and ‘Tune of the Week’, and received further praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, Mixmag, NME, The Times and many more.

It also marked the first release to arrive via Bonobo’s new label OUTLIER (formed in partnership with Ninja Tune) which expands on the series of club shows and festival stage takeovers under that same banner. Launched at the iconic, though now sadly shuttered New York club Output, OUTLIER sees Bonobo playing and curating an array of nights and festivals on either side of the Atlantic which has so far included Field Day, Nuits Sonores, OFFSonar and more. The new imprint will “reflect the more club focused side of what I’m building with OUTLIER” he explains. “‘Heartbreak’ seems like a good starting point and was the track that became the catalyst to start the label. One for the dance floors in a time when they’re dearly missed.”

Parallel 1 reminds me of life... a journey that is at times blissful, exploratory, and meditative. It's incredible that the artist who created this is the same one who gave us Kool FM and KHLHI and who remixed Opus and A Violent Noise. That versatility might be part of Four Tet's genius, and his longevity due in part to his progression, evolution, talent, and ear for music. Art in sound form, music that feels alive... yet underneath it all is that unmistakable soul. Edward

BMW Track / So U Kno
by Overmono

supported by 18 fans who also own “Heartbreak (Kerri Chandler Remix)”

"So U Kno" is one of the best tunes of this century with its head-nodding hypnotic vocals balanced with the power of the bass accompanied by that unmistakable Overmono sound and soul. "BMW Track" and its drums remind us why this duo is at the top of their game. This record is what happens when talent and skill meet work ethic and determination. An absolute masterpiece. Edward
