A1. BIPP (Autechre Mx) B1. UNISIL In 2015 when potential remixes of BIPP were first floated the unequivocal response from SOPHIE was šNo remixes..› a long pause followed š..unless it™s Autechre›. We asked, and five years later an email from Autechre arrived šsorry this is so late, hope it's still of some use›. An Autechre live show recording from a Numbers show in 2005 had first inspired SOPHIE to source the equipment used to craft new music including BIPP, LEMONADE & more. The BIPP Autechre mx is 3 minutes 33 seconds long, stripped back and loose. Sounding like Autechre paying tribute to some serious late 80™s influences. The duo's interpretation channels an imagined transition point between NY electro and UK street soul, that pitched down SOPHIE vocal reconfigured into a wanna-be Latin Freestyle Natasha King, jiving over a deep slice of TR-606 funk technology.
