Q-Burns Abstract Message
Michael Donaldson AKA Q-Burns Abstract Message often speaks
of how he started producing as a form of "long distance
communication". Growing up in an isolated town in Louisiana,
the resourceful teenage Donaldson would make friends across
the globe by recording unfinished pieces on his 4-track and
sending off the tapes to be completed in a far away land.
Often he received tapes as well and would add to and alter
the tracks to an unrecognizable conclusion. It's no wonder
that this has evolved into the most interesting aspect of
the current Q-Burns Abstract Message oeuvre: the remixes.
Future Past Tense is a CD collection documenting the best
remixes by Q-Burns Abstract Message. Stretching back from
1998's remix of Rabbit In The Moon's "Floor.i.da" to recent
re-workings for Fila Brazilla and Lovesky these tracks give
an entertaining overview of the variety, ingenuity, and
funkiness of Donaldson's work. A re-rub of Beef Wellington's
"Dedication" sounds like a future James Brown with its
frenzied drumming and soulful vocals while the following mix
of Mazi and Colette's "Do You Want Me" is pure squelchy funk
house joy. This diversity is present throughout the length
of the disc, but the whole flows together linked by the
playfulness and uniqueness of Q-Burns' production.
Almost all of the tracks on Future Past Tense have been
previously only available on limited vinyl releases and a
few are even rarer. Before now, the Latin flavored remix of
Tetris' "Two Hours" could only be found as a bonus track on
the Russian release of their full album. The ultra-deep
house mix of Rabbit In The Moon's "Floor.i.da" is a
completely different version than the one that appeared on
the Hallucination 12" single. And the gorgeous Naked
Music-like rework of Neon Heights' "Hometown Blue" is
completely exclusive to this release.
Standing alone as a Q-Burns Abstract Message album or a
cohesive collection of brilliant artists remixed, Future
Past Tense is undeniably a fascinating listen that fans of
electronic dance music everywhere will enjoy. Future Past
Tense also gives a glimpse into the developing sound of one
of the USA's most popular and eclectic electronic dance
producers and DJs. It's evident from this release that the
future of Q-Burns Abstract Message will be just as
impressive as his past ...
