POPPONGENE SHARES ALREADY GONE (MARKET REMIX) FROM FORTHCOMING FUTURES UNSURE REMIX EP OUT 4TH SEPT

Today Poppongene shares a remix of 'Already Gone', courtesy of Market. This track is the second offering from her forthcoming Futures Unsure Remix EP.

Market is the project of Melbourne-based artist Lee Hannah, who has previously released dulcet, ambient music as The Townhouses, acted as a session musician for Wafia and Poppongene and played as one half of house-tinged duo Take Your Time. Market's solo sound showcases a love for summer-tinged cassette lo-fi pop production. Their first EP was released on Healthy Tapes in mid-2019 and featured collaborations with Tanya Harper and Lauren Abineri.  

Poppongene's debut EP Futures Unsure was released earlier this year to glowing critical reviews and reception. The remixed and reworked versions of Poppongene's songs from a hand picked selection of local musicians and collaborators will be released via Our Golden Friend on Friday September 4th.

On working with Market, Sophie of Poppongene:

"I was so excited for Lee (Market) to remix a Pops song. I love their music so much, and it really is such a treat to hear how the two differing sounds melded together. It’s also nice to hear this song transformed from a heart-acher into a nuanced and carefully considered banger."


Market had this to say about working on the remix:

"It was super hard to pick a song when Sophie and I were chatting about a remix, but in the end I really loved the sincerity of Already Gone and wanted to play around with expanding that mood and space a little further. I liked the idea of keeping the sounds just as minimal, but tinkering with the drum machines to create a sense of urgency and release. The original wasn’t recorded to a click track, so there are a bunch of these very slightly out of time blemishes that I really love."

The remix is the second track off of the Futures Unsure Remix EP. Poppongene sent the call out to friends and collaborators to give the tracks from Futures Unsure their own spin and rejig.

The first remix featuring Sunbeam Sound Machine was recently premiered on Pilerats. Artists featured on the remix EP are Sunbeam Sound Machine, Dianas, Snowy Band, Market, Bonnie Knight & Good Morning.

The remix EP will be released digitally via Our Golden Friend on Friday the 4th of September 2020.
