BATTLE OF THE REMIXERS VOL.2: Kristine W – Land of the Living
Release Date: (Traxsource Exclusive) OUT NOW; (All Outlets) 13TH JUNE 2011
Continuing in the series of “never before remixed and re-released” tunes, Champion Records turn their attention to the classic jazz-infused “Land Of The Living” from Kristine W – made famous by the fantastic reworking by Deep Dish back in 1996.
First up is legendary Kevin Saunderson, the man behind the out-and-out pop-dance of Inner City, to the underground depths of Detroit techno-anthems such as Triangle Of Love, alongside Juan Atkins. Kevin’s reworking of Land Of The Living focuses around some driving kicks, pulsing synths and a deep electronic bassline, whilst vocal-stabs and ad-libs soar over the top to great effect.
Going head-to-head is someone that’s no stranger to remixing classics. Timothy Allan has recently remixed The Shrink’s “Nervous Breakdown”, as well as working with Kirsty Hawkshaw and Loverush UK, not forgetting “Be My Baby” by Haggstrom. Tim takes things down a much more progressive big-room house route, retaining a fully intact vocal (although a dub is also included), sounding more like what Faithless would be doing in 2011. This is a huge remix not to be missed!
Also included in the bundle is the previously unreleased full length Deep Dish “Land Of The Lost Vocal” mix – which is a journey indeed, weighing in at over 13 minutes long. It’s a true summer anthem, in every sense of the word!
