Gain an insight on how one tune can be incorporated by other talented musicians. Irish band JAPE spice up Dappled Cities' 'Born At The Right Time'.
It's always real fun when a band or artist remixes someone else's track. You gain an insight on how one tune can be incorporated by other talented musicians. Just like how Irish band JAPE has spiced up DAPPLED CITIES' 'Born At The Right Time'.
The Irish band haven't done much to the structure of the track, although they have replaced a lot instrumentally. The mix kicks off with a jovial bassline and some gentle percussion. A few more underlying beats are thrown in and vocals are introduced. The lyrics have been reverberated to the extent that Tim Derricourt sounds as though he's singing through the microphone of a massive, empty stadium.
The mix is pretty consistent, with the exception of a few clean instrumental breaks and some added layers here and there.

It's a tune that could easily be played at a club in the wee hours of the morning when you're starting to feel a little tired from hours of dancing, yet still enjoy the flashing strobe lights showering over your face.
The Jape boys are currently halfway through touring with Dappled Cities, which kind of adds a little more character to this chilled out mix. They kicked off the tour with Darwin last week, so catch both bands while you still can!
