With one less download available than before (eq92-7b7r), you've put those sounds into intrigued and excited hands! :)

I'll be back with my thoughts after a listen or dozen plus.
Advising the rest of you to take a gander, only great things can come out of a new bendu EP. Chow for now.

Boy I have so much to say on this...
Post-listening, I took a few notes so I could write something at least cohesive, on a first listen I really enjoyed this so I hope you don't mind me splurging! :lol:

I admire the way this EP is organised. I think it's really original. Eg: to have a single (Super Hit), and a few remixes as well from folks (of what I assume are tracks on an upcoming album.)

Talking about the title track, I'm finding it quite optimistic, you've made the mix really punchy which adds a lot of character. Makes it quite chirpy.
I actually watched the music video you embedded in the original post after listening to the song. Which does suit the vibe I get. If you have ever seen any music videos for Boogie Belgique, they always use archive footage. That's the first thing that came to mind for me while watching.

I'm treating the remixes as separate entities as I haven't heard the originals. But for the whole time, I was bobbing my head up and down like a loony. (Oh and air-synthing it up on remix 2. :wink:)

On the finale, Big Universe, I really liked your use of delay as the track went further. The mental imagery of 60s science fiction. Drowsy and spacious as I like it.

Thank you so much for posting this. Bendu, you have really given me food for thought (or sound for ears.)
I'd love to know about future releases when they materialise, do let me know!

Thank you for listening and your kind words. I really appreciate it.

It's true, it's unconventional to release remixes before the original tracks but I thought it would be an effective way to generate interest in the album. Which by the way is coming very soon.

'Finale' is a bit of a stretch for Big Universe. It's meant as more of a soft landing that still ties in with the themes of the album.

Now I am going to seek out some Boogie Belgique after I hit the submit button. Thank you for the tip!

More Bendu hype from me. This is the album version of the Panamint Manse track that was on the ep.



Pre-orders of the album go on sale Friday.
