Portishead remixes

If you were sort of underwhelmed by Portishead’s return, Third, I suggest downloading the remix album by Noise/Floor Crew. They definitely amp the atmosphere up, turning the album’s many moody songs into club bangers, but it works. According to a press release, they’re eager to “challenge sampling law,” perhaps making them the next Danger Mouse? Seems they have a debut full-length on the way as well, and are now being courted by the majors. I’m sure we’ll be hearing much more from them soon. Download here.
