[PREMIERE] ZOLA COURTNEY - NOTHING TO LOSE (EKCLE REMIX)

Music, PREMIERE, RemixAlli LindseyComment

At the heels of a milestone remix for DJ Shadow and De La Soul, Bristol-based twosome Ekcle returns to the forefront of emerging alternative dance music with a wicked new take on Zola Courtney’s “Nothing To Lose.” The namesake track to her 2019 EP Nothing To Lose, Courtney’s celebrated indie-pop single is a tailor-made sound template for the always-imaginative Ekcle. A glimpse into their zealous artistic perspective, the budding musical duo gives the already-impressive cut a kaleidoscopic treatment. Embedded in the experimental fabric that Ekcle is best known for, this opulent remix still manages to pay homage to the original pop-oriented gem. Steeped in the left-of-center style they’re best known for, Ekcle orchestrates a flip that is widely accessible without compromising their complex, digital sound-design. A vibrant, polished remix overwhelmed with replay value, Ekcle’s “Nothing To Lose” reimagination is a one-of-a-kind soundtrack.

UK duo Ekcle is the brainchild of experimental visionaries Harvey Carter and Jack Angel. The twosome embodies the value of wonder through their left-of-center take on dance music. Between syncopated sound design and a righteous disregard to the mainstream, Ekcle is an enigma that need not be solved. Ahead of their first single of 2020 “Pearl Jigsaw,” the tandem put together a guided listening adventure that showcases their off-kilter and charming production style. Despite its various moving pieces, there is something effortless about the offering. A rebellious act against convention, Ekcle are anything but ordinary. Watch this space for the February 6 unveiling of “Pearl Jigsaw.”
