WHERE: London, UK

WHY:

This was one of the first remixes we ever did, but it’s remained one of our favourites. The original was great, and we gained massive admiration for Fyfe as a truly great, and massively underrated, song writer and musician. It has so much brilliant musicianship compressed into every bar and every instrument; it’s a breathtaking listen. The parts broken down, with live strings, a fluid tempo shifting bar by bar, and a bassline that never loses it’s groove but seemingly never repeats itself, gave us a platform to remix it into a cosmic disco jam, with the live feel pumped up on steroids and shimmering with electronic enhancements.
Since then we’ve remixed loads of tracks, some by much bigger artists – Gaga, Kylie, Kelis, Marina, OMD, Jamiroquai and more, but this remix, and Fyfe, will always be a really special for us.  Mind you, we are rather chuffed about the Kylie remix that’s just been released, putting her through the galactic wormhole.

This track is listed in: Dance / Electronica // Free Download // Monarchy // Pop

    Awesome track – shades of ELO! I’ve seen Fyfe Dangerfield live, it was a great gig and he’s a really nice guy. Would have been wicked if this had been played too!!
