This compilation is a concept remix album featuring Boom Records stable artists and a few friends of them.
The first track is a remix of Talpa's Dragon Tales, a dreamy morning number made even dreamier by the hands of Canada’s Nystagmus. Track 2 is Fractal Glider's remix of one of the classics of all time… Etnica's “Triptonite”. A big hit on the festivals this summer, it is a bang up to date version with rolling baselines and thumping kicks. This tune will be HUGE, keep an eye on it. The already legendary melody can't fail to give you goosebumps and a smile from ear to ear. Track 3 is another morning track, but this time with a sick twist that only the Swedish could provide. A firm beat, some acidic wanderings and a sweet melody. All washed down with…. A dirty great guitar riff. Got to love the Future Buddhas sense of humour! Track 4 is a remix of one of the biggest hits on Fractal's last cd, and rocked the dancefloors all over the world. The Rastaliens build on this and give it their own unique treatment, who could resist? Agahouey was undoubtedly the best received track by Rastaliens in 2004…. there was a queue of artists for the soundfiles when we were looking for remixers! The best 2 are featured on the cd – a stompy night workout by Quantum State which keeps peaking and peaking (track5), and a more growly morning edition by Fractal Glider (track 8). Both feature the ethnic Maori samples and should be checked out. Track 6 is unashamedly for the night time – a stomper by Groundzero featuring Fear & Loathing samples, remixed to a frenzy by the Rastaliens. Inhale some ether, take some mescaline and enjoy. Track 7 is another remix by the Hungarian duo, Quantum State… remixing “Machines and Robots” for us… be scared, be VERY scared! In at number 9 is Inspector Gadget rmx by Rastaliens again. Fun fun fun, and eminently danceable. Never fails to raise a smile and shake an ass. Last but by no means least is Fractal's freshest track… Gremlin Chan. The result of watching silly 80’s films too late at night, this track is not only a euphoric morning trancer, it’s a feel good giggler to boot, and a great way to wind down this remix compilation. |
