Timothy and the Apocalypse’s The Mindful Cherub gets 9 Theory remix
Timothy and the Apocalypse is excited to release The Mindful Cherub Remixes, teaming up with 9 Theory, Floating Pyramids and The Time Meddler interpolating Timothy’s growing canon of expansive indietronica.
Originally released on Future So Bright, the debut long player from Timothy and the Apocalypse. The Mindful Cherub, plays off conventional desires for HipHop Radio and commercial meditation with soothingly illusionary chimes and 60’s psyche escapism.Upon releasing Future So Bright, his critical update to downtempo electronica demanded the attention of playlist curators landing The Mindful Cherub on Spotify’s Just Chill and NightShift, setting him among contemporaries such as Peggy Gou and Oneohtrix Point Never.
Here within this selection of remixes, the core concept of mindfulness refreshes how you hear the original track. Leading with a remix by 9 Theory (a prominent figure in downtempo house who has worked with Emancipator and Jason Mraz), the LA-based producer focuses on building tuned percussion from the available harmonic structures cultivating a calm introversion, whereas Floating Pyramids is grounded in an organic determination, allowing the haze of vocal samples to swirl past without interference. Time Meddler’s contribution is a clear and present cut, elevating the key identifiers of the original into a crystalline view.
Where the original track placed acid jazz alongside retro-futurism, these revisions integrate the space, textures and time for reflection on all things modern.
‘truly ethereal indeed, with an exceptionally high standard on offer’ - Electric Mode
‘a really unique take on this genre, and is something that can only strengthen Timothy’s catalogue.’
- RGM
‘The result is a work as experimental as it is intense and addictive’ - The Last Future
Known for his diverse cinematic music that fuses smooth Zero 7 and Dj Shadow style trip-hop, cut with influences ranging from Jazz to Drum and Bass, he is constantly working on mastering his musical craft and elevating his sound while continuing to explore new tools, sounds, and collaborating with other artists.
