Sophie: Bipp (Autechre Mix) / Unisil Vinyl 12"
"NO remixes... unless it's Autechre." - Sophie
...That's right, there's a reason there are so few official remixes of Sophie's work on record: she famously eschewed having her own work remixed, but always said she would make an exception for her heroes, Autechre. So in 2015, the Numbers. label took a shot in the dark and submitted the stems for Sophie's "Bipp" to Sean Booth and Rob Brown. Five years later, the duo send back this version, a slow-rolling percussive groover with the original vocal chewed up and spit out into 80s Miami freestyle territory, topped off with a growling, shit-your-pants reese bassline. Delightfully straightforward business hearkening back to their future electro roots a la Lego Feet / Incunabula. The world may be in the toilet, but let your heart be warmed by the fact that Sophie got to hear this before she passed. On the flip is unreleased hypertensive FM synth workout "Unisil," it's vintage Product-era Sophie through and through. Packaged in a silkscreened sleeve. Recommended!
