If last year’s SEAMOSS2 demonstrated Sea Moss’s cartoonishly blistering approach to noise punk, then REMOSS2 pushes things a step further. Reimagining Noa Ver and Zach D’Agostino’s cacophonous, kitchen-sink jams from the perspective of some of the most extreme voices of the contemporary experimental underground, these eight remixes expand and mutate all the sonic possibilities contained within the Portland duo’s idiosyncratic approach. Where SEAMOSS2 played like a raw, blistering comet hurtling through space, REMOSS2 is the sound of the meteor post-impact, with all the pieces gradually being put back together into alien new shapes.

In this collection of artists’ hands, Sea Moss’s polyrhythmic freakouts become a kind of neon-hued Play-Doh to be molded as seen fit. NAH transforms the pummeling beats of “Nap Time” into a full-on bass-boosted assault, redlining the track to new levels of transcendentally crunching feedback. Keith Rankin of Giant Claw layers the ping-ponging “Snake Lady” with an epic, cavernous chasm of ominous synths, imbuing everything with a newfound sense of uncanny consequence. Machine Girl jacks up “Candy Rush” to a careening, apocalyptic drum & bass fever dream. And on Fire-Toolz’ remix of “Number Dreams,” D’Agostino’s pounding drums become the foundation for Angel Marcloid’s trademark style of new-age guitar shredding, coming out sounding like Wii Sports tutorial music as interpreted by Skinny Puppy. Each track varies wildly in approach, but uniting them all is that same Sea Moss philosophy of controlled (yet cathartic) chaos.

With other thrashing remixes from the likes of underground heavyweights like GHÖSH and Bl_ank, REMOSS2 shows all the different warped directions Sea Moss’s music can go. Ver and D’Agostino’s jerry-rigged noise machines provide the fuel for this eclectic group of artists to start a fire, and the results are as thrilling as they are unexpected. For a band dedicated to building each of their sounds individually from the ground up, REMOSS2 contains that same spirit of maniacally playful invention.
