Info:
This is a repack of two dub versions previously released on WHIM037. If you're one of the 7 people who have downloaded WHIM037 before 23.03.2025, you already have those two tracks in your collection. But since these two versions are alternative mixes by Dub Rogue without the Irish instruments by Johnny Ireland, we felt that they were misplaced in the "Ireland Dubs" series.
Instead, these two versions now introduce a brandnew format in our label's portfolio: Outtakes.
"Whimsical Outtakes" is an ongoing project which spans over all other series and features alternative mixes, remixes and retakes of previously released music on our label. 8 episodes of this series form 1 season. At the end of a season will most likely not come an album compiling all the episodes into one release, because the outtakes are not thematically connected.
In the first episode of season one, we have two additional dub remixes by Dub Rogue of WHIM037's "The Maid Who Sold Her Barley" by Johnny Ireland.
Dub Rogue added offbeat skanks to this odd 6/8 bar riddim which he "didn't think would be possible and sound well". Well, it was possible, and at least to our ears sounds well as well. The outerworldly, slightly asynchronous bassline is what gets us though. ;-p

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.
