It is something of tradition for Tosca to get their albums remixed. Indeed, they once released a record comprised entirely of 13 mixes ofone song, 2002s *Different Tastes Of Honey*, variations on *Honey* from 1999s *Suzuki*. It is a way of keeping things fresh, injecting someuncertainty into proceedings, knocking things out of balance in order to check how they should be re-aligned. After releasing *Odeon* earlier this year, Tosca comes back with *Tlapa - The Odeon Remixes*. *Tlapa* meaning, This Life Arouses Pure Adventure. The remixes come from Bredon Moeller, Joyce Muniz, Siler City, LTJ Experience, Beat Pharmacy, Marlow & Truby, Sephane Lefrancois, AFG aka Antye Greie and Rodney Hunter. The double vinyl comes with a CD-copy included.


The first person the pair approached was New York producer Brendan Moeller, who remixed ‘Bonjour’, turning it into a muted soundscape of drifting synths and keening strings that slowly warms as a bubbling riff fades in. The choice of remixer for ‘Stuttgart’ was a case of obvious connections. The track already had a bit of a Latin feel thanks to guest Lucas Santtana from Brazil.
Other reworks come from Silver City, two guys from from Buenos Aires who live in London. They apply an ’80s twist to ‘Johnny Waters’.
LTJ Experience, an alter ego on Italian producer Luca Trevisi from Bologna, turns in an atmospheric interpretation of ‘Meixner’. Perhaps the most unusual remix is AFG’s version of ‘Cavallo’, which sees spoken word passages thrust to the fore. “That’s definitely the most leftfield,” agrees Dorfmeister.
If ‘Odeon’ was the sound of a band at the top of their game, still relevant after two decades, then the remix album shows they’re still on top of the music scene, pulling together well-judged names, old and new, to give their distinctive sound an equally distinctive twist.
