For Kiosk ID 36th release, one of the most storied Kater artists adds another chapter to her signature brand of stripped, acid-touched Deep House, and in spectacular fashion: Britta Arnold’s ‘Kaktus Rodeo’ is a sprawling, hypnotic six-tracker that includes three originals and three carefully curated reimaginations by Steve Challier, Sascha Cawa, and Brian Cid that infuse her floor-focused energy with mangled notes of shuddering darkness.

‘Kaktus Rodeo’ unfolds as a staccato groover built around springy figures of blips and stabs and prickly percussion. Tongue-in-cheek, eerie, and inherently trance-inducing, Britta’s title track draws its power from an eclectic array of influences ranging from breathy hymnal voices to resonating fields of mangled bells, all artfully suffused into a stripped, infectious groove. Steve Challier’s edit spotlights the original’s bubbling depths, transforming ‘Kaktus Rodeo’ into a dubby, circuit-bent House edition that casts a cloud of shuffling drums across deep fields of chords and rolling subs.

Cavernous and hypnotic, ‘Nüwa’ ft. Tatyana cycles through cascading figures of spaced-out blips and conga hits across a darkly hovering pad. Tatyana’s spoken-word mantra leads the listener through a maze of clanging impacts anchored by an electric arp and a dubby, slow-burning groove. Sascha Cawa’s version imbues ‘Nüwa’ with a powerfully cinematic sense of drama. Staggered bursts of laser- sharp synth hits and arcing swells set to a minimal, sub-heavy groove conjure a darkly oscillating cyclone of blown-out pads, clattering percussive effects, and glitchy vocal effects.

‘The Calling’ also featuring Tatyana contrasts biting, acid-infused stabs with a cloud of glassy synth figures. Britta conjures an overcast flurry of clattering synths and samples atop a shuddering substructure, combining a jarring array of elements into an eerily hypnotic dancefloor seance. Artfully coaxing the original’s revolving darkness into an anthemic framework of heavyweight drums and spaced-out pads, Brian Cid’s version moves ‘The Calling’ closer to peak-time territory with an artfully groovy and approachable rendition.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Sascha Cawa’s ‘Nüwa’ remix, exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
