Murlo Remixes Cherish’s “Unappreciated”

Continuing his string of impressive R&B remixes, Murlo has sunk his teeth into Cherish’s overlooked 2006 roller “Unappreciated”. The Jermaine Dupri produced original is subsumed in playful squarewave synths that are given free will to dance over a simple kick pattern. Left-field is entering an interesting phase where producers are finding new ways to aid and abet a vocalist without being entirely derivative of Timbaland or the Neptunes. It wouldn’t surprise me if Murlo turns out to be one of the producers to break that regressive influence-based duopoly either, what with the near-perfect roll of flips he’s got going at the moment.
