Solex is the laptoptronica pop project of record shop owner Elisabeth Esselink. Utilizing the records in her own record store, she assembled her music on an antique 8-track recorder, singing original lyrics over her musical creations. Several fun albums were released, and just this handful of remixes. Solex was also one of the artists that participated in the "In the Fishtank" series of improvisations.
This is a short one, though it is a lot of fun.

I'm a huge fan of Solex and was lucky enough to see her play a gig in my hometown shortly after the Solex vs. The Hitmeister album was released. It was in the bowels of a permanently docked boat in the heart of the city's harbourside area and was fantastic.

That would be an amazing gig, I'm glad you had that opportunity, I can only imagine what a live set from her would've been like. Yeah, please hit me up if you do come across those additional tracks.
