Track 3: The Bitter Battle Of Manor Road [Mk. IV Escort's Trigger Patrol Remix]
Original Artist: Decon Theed
Remix Artist: Mk. IV Escort
Original Track: 103records.bandcamp.com/track/the-bitter-battle-of-manor-road

Man, my poor Mk. IV Escort alias has been so badly neglected the last couple of years. That's partially what lead to the addition of the alias to the remix roster; the other reason is that I honestly wanted to try my hand at a Footwork/Juke/Bassline etc. type cut, and have done for some time, so why NOT do something like that for Christmas? Ain't nothing more Merry then a juke joint, fam. For a first attempt at relatively new ground, it's not half bad; certainly very minimal in places, but I was kinda aiming for something that was a little more stripped down just by way of a change. What's also surprising is just how quick the song came together in the grand scheme of things; it took barely three hours, compared to the far longer slogs through the prior two tracks.

The decision to remix The Bitter Battle Of Manor road, a Decon Theed cut from the very first Christmas album back in 2012, came mostly out of just thinking that the stabbing chord pattern from that song would work in this song of style, and partially out of a desire to try and keep SOME level of winter/Christmas theming going through the tracks, however loosely. The title is a reference to a snowball fight me and some friends had in a December long ago now- back in 2008, I think- which took place on a road in my neighbourhood named Manor Road at like 1-to-2am.
