Music Is My Life (Remixes)

Descrizione

“Two-pronged, remix attacks don’t come much more exciting and potent than this… as here – thanks to our good friends at Nervous NYC – we’re beyond hyped to bring you the legendary Masters At Work and Dave Lee on one single, fully weaponised package.

Putting their own, inimitable spins on Louie Vega’s ˙Music Is My Life˙ – which features the unique talents of Unlimited Touch – we’re treated to a pair of wonderfully complimentary, but no less idiosyncratic re-rubs from these two stalwarts of the scene.

With a production hand and artistic touch like no other – Masters At Work lead the way here, with their main remix. Characterised by that trademark looseness and deliciously warm, organic approach – their rework is awash with woozy psychedelia and layered so expertly, that getting lost in the music is both gloriously simple and an absolute pleasure. But no true Vega & Dope remix suite, would be complete without a bonafide Dub version. And for ˙Music Is My Life˙ – this sees the dynamite duo take proceedings down a distinctly more mesmeric and mood-laden path… one where the vocal is instead used as a powerful rhythmic weapon, and the star of the show, is a surreptitiously morphing and shape-shifting, delicately acid-laced synth lead.

Next up – having recently switched his attentions to productions under his own namesake – is Z Records’ head honcho, Dave Lee. Snapping into life with its crisp and punchy drum work – what Lee’s remix does share with that of the Masters is in the over-arching, tripped-out haze which douses proceedings. However – where his remix opts to stick its head well and truly above the parapit, is in it stylistic flavouring. As when it comes to slicing that genre cake, so to split the worlds of Disco and House perfectly down the middle – there’s simply no one who does it finer.”
