Al3ne – Memories (Toto Chiavetta Remix) [DESSERT]

The fourth serving of Dessert has been prepared. 'Memories' is the latest single by emerging Russian talent Al3ne, ably assisted by rising artists Elif and Toto Chiavetta on the remix front.

The title track by Al3ne is an exercise in balancing both mood and complexity with expert sound design. Organic drums and neatly clipped percussive snippets make up the rhythm section, with a beguiling mix of emotive and scuzzy melodies weaving a path up until the track's pay-off moment - a twisted moment of spoken word vocals, before the track swan dives back into action.

Italian artist Toto Chiavetta demonstrates the immense talent which has landed him a forthcoming album on Osunlade’s Yoruba and a new EP on Dixon and Ame’s Innervisions, with his powerful take on 'Memories'. He seamlessly translates the brooding energy of the original into a muscular, peak time banger.

Istanbul-born Elif taught herself the ropes of music production and DJing 4 years ago, leading to her first release on the mighty Anjunadeep in 2019. Since then she's released on Stil vor Talent and more, displaying a knack for groove-laden yet heartfelt melodies. Her re-interpretation of 'Memories' is a kind of low-slung Italo house, with a weighty low end driving it forward. Tough, neat and just a little bit trippy - it's a perfect early hours roller.
