The Self Help Group - Temple OS (Colour and Pitch)

Brighton alt-folk band The Self Help Group's touching and unique song “Temple OS” gets the remix treatment from Gavin Boyce, Grottoes, Rosko & Sumsuch, and Eric Shans.

The original song, written by Brighton musician Mark Bruce, founder of The Self Help Group, is inspired by the strange and tragic story of Terry A. Davis. Davis began programming the ‘Temple OS' computer operating system in 2005 after a series of visions in which he claimed God had instructed him to build ‘the Third Temple.’

Reunited for the first time since their 2009 low-key underground hit “Latenite Bypass” on Urban Torque, Rosko & Sumsuch turn in an acid-tinged, string-laden, extended rework of the song, putting Mark's powerful vocal out front and dubbing the song out in the second half.

Off-kilter electronic music hero Q-Burns Abstract Message unveils his brand new Grottoes alias for a meditative, ambient Reversion of “Temple OS”, layering guitars over airy synths to build up a densely textured soundscape.

With an album coming soon on Nordic Trax, Irish producer Gavin Boyce delivers the potent and haunting house-fueled 2MB Distro Mix of “Temple OS”, sure to provide many a transcendental dance-floor moment when the clubs finally re-open.

Colour and Pitch regular and 3Bridge Records co-owner Eric Shans stays true to the original version, adding subtle electronic melodies and shimmering chords to delightful effect.

Finally, The Self Group provide an alternate rendition of “Temple OS”, transforming the song into a languid and warm synth-pop gem.

DeLorean Suite - Love and Sincerity: The Remixes (Craic House Recordings) →

8DPromo and Oseao are happy to welcome Irish house music label Craic House Recordings to the promotional roster. This latest release presents DeLorean Suite, a three-piece Band from Limerick, Ireland consisting of Jennifer McMahon (Vocals), Tony Roche (Drums/Percussion) and Graham Conway (Keyboards/Production). The trio have spent several years crafting a laid-back, subtle sound which seeks the amalgamation of genres as varied as house, downtempo, nu-jazz and R’n’B. The result is a dynamic blend of soulful grooves, punctuated by tight percussion and delicate synth textures which has found its way already to labels like Slip ‘N’ Slide and Sofitone. DeLorean Suite made their mark with Craic House Recordings as part of its Sampler Vol. 1 vinyl release. This 12” featured DeLorean Suite’s track “Love and Sincerity" which earned the band chart success. Now "Love and Sincerity" has been revisited by Craic House with a superb set of remixes showcasing the track for different moods and dance floors. Reworks come courtesy of Slovakian producer Bollo (Soluble Records) giving the track an Ibizan edge; Brooklyn’s Max Martinez (Aztec Tribalism) with a spiritually influenced deep afro-house sound; Gavin Boyce (Nordic Trax) retooling the track in his lush, UK deep house style; Irish DJ veteran QuestionMarQ (Soma/Darkroom Dubs) providing a floor-filling case of 303 disco boogie; and Craic House label don Victor John Junior with a MAW-influenced mix filled with afro-latin soulful house vibes. Everything is tied together by the beautiful sound of DeLorean Suite’s front-woman Jenny on vocals. All-in-all, this makes for a stunning package already earning support from the likes of Abicah Soul, Davidson Ospina, and Todd Gardner. Dig in.
