Shiver me timbers, etc.

You may remember that some time ago we wrote about sonic scrapbook merchant Josh Console, ADHD’s very own Fatboy Slim. Since then he’s been hard at work producing stuff as part of the Pirate Soundsystem, sensibly having realised that remixing credible artists with your mates is about 500% more enjoyable and profitable than sitting in your bedroom making Rage Against The Machine records sound even more stupid ever will be.

One of Pirate Soundsystem’s latest remixes is for Hadouken!’s excellent new single ‘Liquid Lives’, which is out this week. In true Josh Console style the remix is loud, glitchy, stupid, needlessly showy, borderline unlistenable - and fucking brilliant.

It starts off with the sound of Pirates repeatedly throwing Hadouken! (and the entire contents of their kitchen cupboards) down the stairs, before morphing into a great big daft UK Garage track that bounces, twists and turns all over the shop, turning the original into a veritable rollercoaster of beats, bleeps and the obligatory MASSIVE RAVE SIRENS.

It’s such a good idea for a remix that Hadouken! themselves have done similar things on their own equally ’heavy’ ‘re-rub’ of the single.

You can listen to a clip of the PS version here. As well as looking at this.
