Chrome Sparks, Two Can and more hop on for remixes of Carmada's Realise

It would've been hard to get through 2015 without hearing the name Carmada - the dream-team duo of Yahtzel and L D R U blew up our speakers with their OWSLA-signed project all year, which included the release of their debut EP, dates at Groovin The Moo and Stereosonic, remixes for Charli XCX and a heap more. With L D R U releasing his own stuff and Yahtzel just teaming up with Bengal for a newie the other day, the Carmada project has hit the sidelines for a tad (don't worry - it will be back soon), but in the meantime, the duo have dropped the remix EP for their single Realise, which sports remixes by Melbourne duo Two Can, bass-house maestros Cause & Affect, Moving Castle fam member Manila Killa and Future Classic-signed producer Chrome Sparks.

The EP kicks off with Two Can, who takes Noah Slee's vocals for a wild, tropical-infused ride thanks to the inclusion of a bass-saturated drop and a subtle percussion-based melody. Cause & Affect's remix is much more dominant, completely transforming the original into a bass-house banger which only really borrows the vocals from the original, as well as a couple of samples entwined throughout the drop. Manila Killa, a forerunner in the LA-based collective Moving Castle, creates a much more laid-back and peaceful rendition of Realise, with a nice, mellow build up that gradually turns into quite a unique synth-dominated drop which switches up half way into more of a percussion-heavy sound. As expected, Chrome Sparks' re-do of Realise is by far the most experimental, with a strange, syncopated melody that layers vocals and synth for something far more sprawling and conceptual than the other remixes. To coincide with the remixes, the Carmada boys have dropped deets on a massive regional tour that'll see the boys hit up the Gold Coast, Fremantle, Townsville and Bendigo, among others, with local Perth don Elk Road.
