Be Enough (Daniel Avery Remix) / Holding On (JD Twitch Dub)

Following the reissue of their sophomore, self-titled LP, Acopia return to CWPT for a limited-edition vinyl 10” featuring two remixes from Daniel Avery and JD Twitch of Optimo.

Extended and remastered for dancefloors, Daniel Avery transforms the skeletal intimacy of ‘Be Enough’ into skittering, hardcore-indebted, warehouse material, as lead singer Kate Durman’s gossamer vocal holds strong beneath an onslaught of kicks and atop powerful bass weight.

JD Twitch conjures his extensive knowledge of brooding outsider music throughout a rich, lucid dub of ‘Holding On’. Coaxing out the band’s gothic undertones, Twitch pulls away a billowing sheet to reveal layers of guitar feedback that recall the resplendent gloom of This Mortal Coil or Sunn O))).

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Two futureproof sound system bangers. Avery opts for a high speed dnb rinse out while Twitch goes for crushing slice of tectonic avant-dub.

CWPT welcomes Acopia to the label with a reissue of the cult Australian bands self-titled sophomore album, available on vinyl outside of Australia for the first time.

Based in Melbourne/Naarm, Acopia’s music is a careful control of tension and release, sparseness and warmth, momentum, and space. Across ten tracks, the band’s three members move across post-punk lamentation, shoegazing DnB, smoldering trip hop and subdued electronic pop, as they carve out their own hazy world of romanticism and restraint.

The highly anticipated follow-up to the band’s stellar 2022 debut, ‘Chances’, this is a deeply emotionally sensitive record, equal parts refined and relatable, and a listening journey that is immediately understood while revealing new layers with each subsequent listen.

Alongside the physical release of ‘Acopia’, CWPT will also release two digital-only remixes of the band, courtesy of Daniel Avery and JD Twitch.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Niche but brilliant dream-pop and trip-hop from Australia. if you dug ASO's self titled from last year (as many of us did here!), this one's 4 U!
