Matt Edwards’ label has such strong ties to Berlin, but this release’s title doesn’t imply that Rekids is opposed to German electronic music. The reality is that it refers to that older meaning of ‘versus’, the ‘versioning’ that fuelled dub sound systms. Certainly Berghain residents Marcel Dettmann and Ben Klock put their stamp on Rekids tracks. In Dettmann’s case it’s ticking percussion and a nagging acid line that lends an air of menace to Mr G’s “U Askin?”, while for Klock, his “Timepiece” reshape of Deepchild vs Jamie Anderson’s “The Clock” provides an opportunity to layer metallic rhythms on top of each other. Roman Fluegel’s tranced out version of Radioslave’s “My Bleep”, which was one of Rekids first releases, completes the package.
