I Was There (Kasper Bjørke <3 NY Remix)


Listen Later

The second of a series of remixes from Kasper Bjørke’s latest album “Puzzles” has been crafted by Kaspe Bjørke himself. “Reworking your own catalogue is always a challenge”, he says “and it’s not something I have done very often. Yet, transforming I Was There into a club track for DJs was incredibly rewarding.
On the Puzzles album, this trackmaybe stood out a bit compared to the rest of the songs - but in its remixed form, it fully embraces its club potential. “On the rework I took out the live bass and guitars and opting for a programmed kick drum while making the overall track more synth-driven. Using a 303 acid bassline and more distinct keyboard layers, I wanted to bring a new dimension to the track while preserving the raw, live energy of the original drums.”
It’s basically a tribute to the 2000’s post disco sound of New York which was and still is incredibly inspiring to me - it was a scene that has had a lasting influence on me both as a
producer and music fan, shaped by my countless trips to the city, for working
on new music, DJing and getting lost in the night life.
