Remarc
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remarc is a British Jungle producer, most known for his productions of the mid-90s.[citation needed] Kmag has cited him as a "major influence" on contemporary breakcore/"alternative d&b" artists (Soundmurderer, Enduser, DJ Scotch Egg, etc.),[1] and has also praised him for his drum programming[1] and "super-technical" use of the Amen break.[2]
In 2003 Planet Mu released "Sound Murderer," a Remarc compilation containing tracks (many of them previously unreleased on CD) that were originally released between 1995 and 1997 on labels like Suburban Base.[3] In the album's Pitchfork review, Scott Plagenhoef wrote that it included "some of the most deft manipulations of rhythm of the jungle era."[3] Planet Mu released a second compilation, "Unreleased Dubs 94-96," the following year.[1]
Two of Remarc's tracks have sampled popular hood movies - Menace II Society and Boyz n The Hood, on his tracks Menace and Ricky respectively.
His younger brother, MC Eksman, is a popular drum and bass MC.[4]
