All in it together

Kutiman remixes found Youtube posts. He has interesting links to all the original source material in his info.

It's touching to see these tossed-off, low-sound-quality pieces of ephemera turned into moving, exciting music. Having the creators on film really revitalizes the remix idea, which is exciting when you see someone creating it live with turntables but becomes too flat when you hear it on a CD. Seeing a different personality behind each element of the music gives the whole thing an almost novelistic quality.

Touching too to imagine that all the people behind the music, each full of their own intention when they recorded their videos, were unwittingly part of some larger human endeavor to make music - a numinous idea, surely, but almost concretized in these remixes.
