Three way release from Juice Of Mango x Fresh Yabai Ongaku! x 3RD Planet

This is a tribute compilation for our good friend Remi who took her own life in May of 2018.

Remi Gawin was a multi-genre multi-instrumentalist and vocalist from Highland Park, Illinois, though she later relocated to Arvada, Colorado. She was involved in numerous DIY and cyber projects during her lifetime, such as, James Doesn't Exist, Doomknobs, Interspersing Bone and Blood, Satanic Erynn Boe 666, Kizumono No Hanako, Giant Peach, Harshllamas, DJ B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-バカ, Tentacle Witches, whoreater, The Satans, Sloggernaut, Forced Abortion, and many more. She also ran the netlabel, Fresh Yabai Ongaku!.

Remi had a natural knack for music and started seriously releasing material on her own at around 13 years old, even being released on several occasions (at a very young age) through Jay Randall's well known netlabel, Grindcore Karaoke. Over the years of her life, she amassed an impressive discography of music, worked with lots of different artists and projects, and had material released on many different labels. Working primarily as a solo artist, she delved in to many different genres, starting with grindcore, hip hop, and experimental early on in her career and later making her way in to electronic, anti-nightcore, nintendocore, and other styles of metal and punk.

Remi was extremely talented and creative. All of her projects have fantastic production quality, even the less serious ones, and retain a very notable sense of originality. She was someone that was able to constantly push boundaries and move genres in to new and interesting areas to be explored. Projects of hers, such as James Doesn't Exist and Satanic Erynn Boe 666, are timeless classics of the the late first decade of the 2000's internet and cyber DIY community, and will no doubt in later years be heralded as staples of a new era of music ushered in by the exponential prominence of the internet. Other, less-well-known projects of hers highlighted her incredible capacity as a musician and artist as well as her ability to venture in to and adopt new styles and sounds.

Losing Remi was a tragedy. It was made even worse by the discovery that she had deleted many of her bandcamps prior to taking her own life (there were a lot, she had tons of projects), she left very few online. Fortunately, much of her music is still available via other sources online and in physical copies, so all is not lost. We firmly believe she will live on through her fantastic music and relationships she formed with other people.

This compilation was compiled and contributed to by friends and collaborators of Remi's. Not only does it feature tracks of theirs, but also some unreleased tracks and demos of hers that we were able to recover. We are very proud of this tribute compilation and hope you enjoy it.
