Sound System Aberration S3E2 ft. Rory Hoy

A connection made through one remix can open a much larger musical world. Rory Hoy was already part of All Out’s story through his version of The Ravers. In December 2023, the meeting continued in Sound System Aberration, with each participant bringing a programme of his own.

All Out turns to 2000s breaks: Freeland, Wink & Tom Middleton, Koma & Bones, Paul van Dyk through Hyper and Elite Force. An earlier selection underlies the choices, joined by the producer’s present. The 2023 Industrial Landscape Edit closes the section, placing personal tension inside a familiar musical setting.

Rory Hoy responds with big beat. The Wiseguys, Kid Kenobi, Altern 8 as remixers, Krafty Kuts & Guau, Tessela and Fatboy Slim sit beside his originals. The author of The Little Big Beat Book presents that attachment through the records themselves.

There is pleasure in recognising a shared taste that does not erase the differences between the participants. Beyond someone else’s reading of The Ravers, there is a chance to encounter its maker through music he chooses himself.
