Once more CLRX pays respect to the intriguing music on MOTOR´s recent Man Made Machine album and releases another exiting remix package. This time the featured vocalist is none other than legendary Nitzer Ebb´s lead singer Douglas McCarthy, definitely a great honor and joyful challenge for the artists in charge of the remixes.
On the A side of number three in this series of limited edition picture discs, a deep, hypnotic and uncompromising version of MOTOR feat. Douglas McCarthy The Knife by Brian Sanhaji slowly unfolds over the time-span of ten and a half minutes. The acclaimed live artist once more proves that he is not only a skilled producer of original tracks, but that he can also do an equally accurate job on other artists´ music and vocals. The usual sonic brilliance of Brian Sanahji´s productions is something we already take for granted when a track of this mastering expert leaves his studio, and he surely lives up to the high expectations again.
The B side of the vinyl contains a faster, pleasantly driving take on the MOTOR track and shows at least two of producer Peter van Hoesen´s biggest talents. On the one hand he is known for his ability to combine the best of many musical worlds and on the other hand he can reliably deliver what has been called straight-up dancefloor jackin´ techno. The treatment of the vocals is excellent, and in spite of the raw power of the track, it adds an almost mesmerizing vibe. The Berlin based sound designer from Brussels has definitely left a recognizable handwriting on this remarkable production.
The digital release features both mixes of the picture disc and an additional, fondly crafted remix by DJ Emerson and Angel Costa. The two producers from Berlin and Mallorca have teamed up for this task and have paid their respect to the original track in their very own, open minded way. The diversified beat structure and the sensitive arrangement show that the two producers had really found some common ground and were simply enjoying themselves while they were working on this equally challenging and rewarding project.
CLRX is very happy to present you another brand-new release and we hope you enjoy this collection of quality remixes
