Nuage and pecq’s melancholy bit of summer nostalgia, ‘Night Air’, gets a makeover from three distinct, tastemaker producers: BAILE, QRTR and il:lo. These remixes capitalize on the somber, airy vocals and lush bells and pads that led to the original racking up over 400,000 streams.
Lush arpeggios and bending reverberated synths swell atop a crisp breakbeat in il:lo’s reimagining. The original vocals float atop the dream-like instrumental. QRTR heads the other direction, flipping the track into a left-field bass tune with glitching percussion and scattering vocal chops, broken up by sections of airy ambience from the original track.
As frequent collaborators, BAILE and Nuage have an effortless way of meshing their sounds, and BAILE’s rework of ‘Night Air’ is no exception. Accentuating the stuttering pianos and vocal chops, BAILE adds in a choppy breakbeat and bumps the tempo up, to create a DJ-friendly version of the original perfect for a daytime festival slot or a sunrise set at Burning Man.
