Persian Meets Picasso
Mysticisms - Cat No: MYD010
- updated:2026-07-10
A delightful re-press of the classic remix collection that sold out immediately after the first pressing! A rework project of prolific real underground PERSIAN works based on his own "EXISTENCE IS RESISTANCE" since the early 90's. The project has retained the strong individuality of the original songs through the use of Japanese period drama narration and other techniques. While retaining the strong character of the original songs, including the use of Japanese period drama narration, the addition of 4/4 propulsion〜 tribal percussion gives the arrangement a DJ-friendly feel!
Track List
The first pressing and delivery of this remix by London underground artist PICASSO sold out before we could even comment on it! PERSIAN, who regrettably decided to retire from production last year, has remixed "Space Within Art" (2021), the first release in the MYSTICISMS dubplate series. D Dub Twist" (sample 1), a collage of Japanese narration/serif samples, converts Blakes' original into a minimal tight four beat! Conversely, "Dunya 2 (Picasso Harp Diem Remix)" (sample2), which completely changes the original and transforms it into a tribal dance with fantastic harp echoes, is also very clever. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
