Greeen Linez is a collaboration between Chris Greenberg (from the British electronic pop band Hong Kong In The 60s) and UK-born/Tokyo-based DJ/producer A Taut Line (aka Matt Lyne, co-founder of the Diskotopia label). The project combines the ‘90s dance music and R&B that soundtracked Chris and Matt’s childhoods with the ‘70s/’80s jazz-funk and synthesizer soundtracks that they have obsessed over in the years since. All of this is filtered through the cocktail of retro pop, fusion and supermarket muzak that Matt has been exposed to during his time in Japan. Their debut album Things That Fade was released in summer 2012 on Diskotopia, receiving positive reviews in many highly regarded publications, as well as support from internationally famous DJs and producers. Greeen Linez did not start out with the intention of doing remixes, but following the release of their debut EP in 2011, they were approached by various artists they liked and respected, and so could not resist the opportunity to work with them. The duo’s approach to remixing varies greatly, depending on the material they are working with, but their aim is always to add some of their particular sound and atmosphere to the tracks, while remaining true to the spirit of the original music.
