Kosyne & Kelakovski & Yungun - Mozart Unwrapped

Mozart Unwrapped is a project myself and Kelakovski got involved with a couple months ago; the aim of the project is to shed some light onto the works of the famous composer Mozart in an effort to bring his work to new audiences.

Me and Kelz took on the challenge and were given three recordings of Mozart pieces which we were told to chop, twist and blend the samples anyway we saw fit and transform the selections into a blap.

I started the beat and passed the project files onto Kela who worked it some more, finally inhouse EATGOOD mix/engineer Taharka added a few sprinkles and got the beat sounding even nicer. To top it off the hiphop artist (and previous beat cypher guest) Yungun added vocals to the track to make it the main theme of the project!

The project gets real interesting in these final stages where participants are encouraged to remix the tracks and create their own versions of the song with their vocals added. Our instrumental is one of the many tracks by other commissioned artists you can lace and submit back to the Kings Palace in order to be in the runnings for some ill prizes.

Details on the RJDJ remixer widget (which you can use on your dekstop or iOS/Android phone/tablet) are here http://www.kingsplace-unwrapped.co.uk/, check it out and get busy!
