Goat - Run To Your Mama RSD 12"
Don't forget, to celebrate this years Record Store Day, Rocket are excited to announce the release of two limited edition 12”s containing exclusive remixes of Goat’s 'Run To Your Mama'.
Vol.1 starts with a subtle but very effective mix by West Country noisegazers Thought Forms, who add washes of cello and bird song to the original track. Following them is Not Not Fun’s High Wolf who stamps his recognisable looped drones all over his reimagination. Redg Weeks, Geoff Barrow’s right hand man at Invada Records is up next and he takes the tracks repetitious groove to create a formidable mix. Then we have The Horrors’ Tom Furse who finds a glam stomp in the track and runs with it. Finally on Vol.1 we have fellow Rocket musicnaughts Teeth of the Sea who create a high energy mix which turns the track into something akin to Xtrmntr era Primal Scream.
The mighty Gnod team up with fellow Manchester producer Raikes Parade for the first remix on Vol.2, together they create a unexpectedly poppy dance track. Following that the legendary DJ and crate digger Cherrystones deconstructs the original track into a mass of industrial beats and echoed vocals. Leeds psych band Hookworms turn the track into a fuzzed out soundscape that calls to mind the fuzzy sounds of Spacemen 3. The last track on Vol.2 is by cosmic disco collective Cage & Aviary who turn it into a great dubbed out, early 90’s ‘Acid house’ dance floor filler.
