"Unremixed" performed by Alarm Will Sound

"Unremixed" was written for Alarm Will Sound’s debut at the Lincoln Center Festival in 2005. The work was created as a finale for the concert, which was the complete presentation of "Acoustica," Alarm Will Sound’s album of arrangements of Aphex Twin’s electronica. The work integrates several ideas from Aphex Twin’s music as well as instrumental techniques used in Acoustica arrangements to imitate electronic sounds. "Unremixed" is divided into four sections. The first features the descent from "Gwely Mernans" presented in various ratios against a consistent quarter note pulse divided into sixteenths. A lick similar to the pentatonic figures found in "Cliffs" emerges, played in different meters against the pulse. A bombastic percussion solo leads to the second section, which places a firm 5/4 pulse against a tune formed from two phrases of 10/16 that change their division of the meter. Though not directly taken from the music of Aphex Twin, the tune is reminiscent of many modal funky grooves found in electronic dance music. Eventually it is placed against the descent from the previous section. The third section imitates the industrial sound of electronica. The tune from "Meltphace 6" emerges over a 7/8 groove whose working title was “Sick Machine.” Various layers are added to the texture to grow towards a giant climax. The final section is a simple dance party featuring techno drum tracks that grow increasingly complex and a sped up presentation of the mixed meter dance tune from the second section. The performers are encouraged to get a little rowdy towards the end.
