Been Here Before

by Brahm

supported by

Anthony Childs Top alternate versions/ instrumentals/remixes. LOVE "Chuckin'" a) how a prominent rhythm element gets introduced early, then it's source is revealed later and b) the interplay between the bass rhythm and the "hi-hat" being completely different from the original track (which is also cool, its tempo being more straight forward vs Brahm's remix having more a push/pull tension) while c) keeping the original recognizable but with a definite Brahm stamp. Listen to both, you'll hear it! Favorite track: Chuckin' (Brahm Remix).

about

ASR-10 master Brahm kind of returns with this post-humous album released during his hiatus. Most of the tracks were made during the "Get The Ghost" sessions including instrumental remastered versions of some tracks from that album plus a bunch of unreleased tracks. This marks the indefinite pause of Brahm crate digging as the ASR-10 has been retired and joined the giant floppy disk in the sky.
