It Loved to Happen Remixes

Description

Remixes and reinterpretations of Ot To Not’s recent LP from a curious host of musicians. L.A.’s king Carlos Nino (Build An Ark / Life Force Trio), U.S. Pop weirdo’s Xiu Xiu, Scottish electro/acoustic maverick Ben Chatwin and Dutch sound twiddler Machinefabriek take the tracks into strange and wonderful new realms.

Ot to not to is the experimental R’n’B recording project of Virginia natives Ian Mugerwa and Noah Smith. In 2016, Mugerwa released the first Ot to Not to LP Goshen through Nicolas Jaar’s OTHER PEOPLE imprint after being discovered by Jaar in 2015 while recording. Goshen was a very deliberate effort to create an R’n’B concept album that explored aesthetics and recording methods usually more associated with European experimental electronic music. More specifically, it was an effort to subvert tropes in pop R’n’B, whether those be the stereotypical, sterile cleanliness of radio R’n’B or the safe themes and song structures.
