Redial


Name: Redial (Rob Frier)
Location: Sydney, Australia

Genre: Electro

Label: Tuffem Up! Records
Redial is yet another talented and exciting artist to emerge from Australia's vibrant electro scene. He is also the face of the up and coming Tuffem Up! Records.
Redial like many emerging artists is best known for his remixes. Remixes are very hit or miss and for me the best remixes are those that retain the original aspects which make a song great and then inject a new imaginative interpretation. Redial's remixes are up their with the best i've heard because of his ability to exploit this.
Phoenix - Lisztomania (Redial Remix)
This is the first Redial track I heard and was hooked from the first drop. The carefree nature of the original is obvious from the start but a darker edgier tone then creeps it way in. The pop enfused lyrics flow seamlessly between both moods. The erriness then follows on to set up the drop which can only be described as brutal. Fucking awesome song.
Miike Snow - Silvia (Redial Remix)
Same formula same result
The Killers - Somebody Told Me (Redial Goes Oldschool Remix)
Never been the biggest Killers fan but don't mind the original. The remix is special though, the use of vocals, the dark undertones and the insane drop, good.
DatA - One in a Million (Redial Remix)
Flows more than the other tracks above, very nice vibe though

Proxy - Who are You? (Redial Remix)
Good but not my favourite very hard as you can imagine a mix of Proxy and Redial would be an acquired taste
