“In A Heartbeat (Hird Remix)” by Koop feat. Terry Callier    

Hird’s remix changes the structure of song and adds some great rhodes by Christopher Berg and drums by Daniel Fredriksson, coming close to the beauty of the original.

Chill out and downtempo might have been two genres that sound alike, but whichever of the two designations the outfits get defines their career. For instance, Koop's soundscapes veer close to easy listening, though there's something highly unreal about them, because their mix of jazz and electronic music does cause us to question our ears. You see, their electronica feels so organic you're baffled to hear they basically made the majority of their pieces with machines. However, I would say they tempered the possible coldness of their tunes with the immense brightness of their sound and their choice of vocalists. They actually did their job as those old jazz orchestras, yet they updated these principles for the modern period.
