Dill xx
Remix EP · Released 9 September 2026
Seven months after Dill, Pavel Doronin hands the EP's fragments of memory to three artists to rework. Dill xx takes three tracks from the original EP and lets soo:k, Maria Teriaeva and Schoeffler each fold them into their own language.
“The original Dill was inspired by the smell of my mother's cooking, and built to reflect childhood memories in sound. I became curious what those memories would sound like if they were remembered by someone else. I'm so glad my friends agreed to take this on and remix tracks for Dill xx.”
— Pavel Doronin.
Dill 8 (soo:k Remix)
"Rather than building on top of the original, I wanted to unravel it. Working from its emotional core, I reassembled the track through quiet movement, open space and slowly dissolving textures, like fragments drifting in and out of focus."
— soo:k, Berlin-based sound artist and DJ.
Dill 35 (Maria Teriaeva Remix)
"Remixing ambient music is a bit of a challenge. Saying no would mean admitting defeat, so thanks Pavel for the experience — I really enjoyed working on this one."
— Maria Teriaeva, Siberian-born, Paris-based composer who uses Buchla modular synthesizer as the framework for her music.
Dill 53 (Schoeffler Remix)
"What drew me to remixing Dill 53 was its openness, paired with a sense of commitment. Given the sounds Pavel chose for this track, I had no option but to contribute my own experiences. The meadow that was already there gained a bird, freely singing its song. The urban noises, with their squeaking sneakers, gained a marble run with balls circling inside it. Absorbed in play, the moment becomes eternity."
— Schoeffler, the project of Oliver Schöffler, an experimental musician and producer from Regensburg, Germany, who often builds his own instruments.
