Kassa Overall’s “Water Suite (Thirst)” Remix Makes Waves

Hold on to your headphones, because Kassa Overall breathes new life into the remix game with his take on Sly5thAve’s “Water Suite (Thirst).” Calling this anything less than brilliant would be a crime. If you didn’t already know why Kassa is one of the most forward-thinking innovators in music today, this remix spells it out in neon letters. Every pulse, every beat—it’s pure goosebump fuel.

Sly5thAve himself is practically shouting it from the rooftops: “He’s a genius and innovator in my eyes.” He’s not wrong. Overall flips the original track into a swirling, emotional tempest that feels both intensely personal and sonically massive. It’s the kind of remix that makes you hit repeat, just to figure out how the hell he pulled it off.

Even the legendary Mary Anne Hobbs threw her hat in the ring, crowning it her BBC Radio 6 Music “near future” track. It’s a fitting nod, considering this remix sounds like it beamed in from a galaxy where jazz, electronic, and hip-hop collide in spectacular chaos. Add this to the buzz around Sly5thAve’s upcoming gigs and it’s clear we’re on the brink of something brilliant.

Pro tip: catch the full band live (HERE) with heavyweights like Deschanel Gordon, Tal Janes, and Isobella Burnham. These final tickets will be gone before you blink. Consider this your warning.
