Christian Smith to remix classic Underworld cut

The techno don will deliver an update on the classic 1994 cut with two new treatments available on Tronic, just in time for the last Bank Holiday of summer. How’s that for timing?

Various Artists ‘John Digweed – Structures 2’

With the past of this electronic institution reinterpreted alongside its present and future anyone with even just a passing interest in quality electronic music needs to think very seriously before leaving this collection on the shelf.

CHOICE CUT – Dosem ‘Parallel’

A huge double album of ethereal downbeat, spanking progressive house, dubby techno, deep vocal house, and jacking tech should appeal to more than a few people. That’s why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to recommend Dosem’s latest… it’s very, very good.

John Digweed & Nick Muir ’30 Northeast’

The boys are back, as it were, and large sounding as ever. Old school sounds abound on this building deep chugging techno workout full of spooky plucked strings and one of those classic tracking rhythms. The acid house remix from American Abe Duque’s good too.

Shades of Sound – A quick call to Guy J

After 2008’s debut, Esperanza, Guy J is back on John Digweed and Nick Muir’s Bedrock Records, with his second LP, 1000 Words. A sprawling triple disc meld of progressive house, downbeat, ambient and deep grooves, we were so happy we interviewed him.

Various Artists ‘Balance 018: Nick Warren’

Four fours that are at once futurist and filthy, while not being afraid of a breakdown or two, Way Out West man Warren’s acclaimed ability to blend music musically is showcased to great effect on a mix that’s progressive house for the techno age.

Tech D ‘Subway’

One of Russia’s finest imprints again delivers a disturbingly good slice of proggy pie, this time from Tech D. Like a peak time basement about to explode it’s all about preparing people for whatever comes next with pure deep house and techno atmosphere.

Psycatron ‘People In Glass Houses’

“We wanted to try something on a slightly dubbier tip than our usual fare and had been listening to lots of old European techno from the early 90’s at the time.” And they’re not kidding. Psycatron’s brief explanation of the thought process behind this release is pretty apt.

Cari Lekebusch & Jesper Dahlback ‘Hands On Experience’

Another week, another mass of muscular Swedish four-fours. This time H Productions boss Cari Lekebusch teams up with latter day legend Jesper Dahlback to deliver an EP that’s made with just one thing in mind- the dancefloor.
