Info:
"Featured Dubs" is an ongoing project in which artists from other labels are prominently featured on Whimsical Music with either own musical creations or remix cooperations. 8 episodes of this series form 1 season. At the end of a season might or might not come an album compiling all the episodes into one release.
The fifth episode of the first season revists Blondub Sexy Sound, a music project surrounding singer, performer and visual artist Orly Frider.
The "Handsome Scoundrel" remix is an aftermath of BSS' 2008 remix album "God Bless The Empress" for which Dub Rogue provided a remix for another song. An early draft of this remix was done back then, but wasn't finished until 15 years later in 2023. The remix got a bit rebuilt and is now an homage to one of Dub Rogue's favourite's songs: Audio Active "Electric Bombardment (Remix)" from their "Happy Shopper in Europe" EP. That song, as song performed live 1995 in Berlin's Loft concert hall, is one of the most impressive musical experiences Dub Rogue ever had. Audio Active's idea of fast-paced parts mixed with ambient slow-motion parts was used for this remix.

Whimsical Music is a netlabel for quirky electronic music without boundaries, with a slight emphasis on leftfield dubby styles. No constraints, just free music for free people. We like to remix other people's work we love, and show them our appreciation through our works. Our releases are usually structured in series, like on TV. 8 episodes of a season make an album. Remixes, one-takes, songs with all kinds of samples come together for an open-minded, free-spirited experience. Whimsical Music is non-profit. It's just for fun and to give our respect to other people. Our songs are often tributes and fan service for things we like. Some Whimsical Music releases are not official releases and are not available on any streaming platform or physical media, only homemade videos on YouTube, Bandcamp (for free) and our own website. Please let us know if you feel like there is something here that shouldn't be, e.g. a sample or a video clip.
