Spencer Brown takes Kx5, Hayla’s ‘Escape’ techno
Nearly three months after the release of “Escape,” Kaskade and deadmau5 have turned to Spencer Brown for the first techno remix of their debut single as Kx5. Out now via mau5trap, Spencer Brown’s rewiring of “Escape” marks his first release since April’s Stuck/Reflex EP. Although Kx5 and Hayla’s original toes more progressive territory, Brown’s turns techno on a live set-positioned spin that surfaces with a somewhat higher level of energy.
Premiered during Kaskade and deadmau5’s set at EDC Las Vegas 2022, Brown’s faster, bass-thumping version of “Escape” is said by the producer to be “one of his favorite productions he has made in his career.” Altogether, the remix that listeners hear today represents Brown’s dedication to the re-imaginative venture; his first two stabs were declined, but after many hours in the studio, Brown’s third and final attempt proved to be masterful.
