Praised for its genre-defying style, Valencia artist AFKKT aka Marc Martinez Nadals sophomore album coupled sounds from Dance, Electronic, Indie and more with a formidable line-up of guests including singer Sutja Gutierrez and producers Upercent and Piek. It was an album that exhibited his technical ability and further highlighted why he has been so in demand since his 2012 debut, Punto 0. Kicking off the original tracks is for example Dosem, who reworks Someone In The Sky, he delivers for our particular enjoying a classy club rework leaning shuffler with heady doses of a techy groove. A sure-fire floor-filler. Totally functional for jacking your body wherever you happen to be. Dosem is followed immediately by German duo Kruse & Nuernberg who create a sweet re-interpretation of an authentic A-bomb: San Diego. Even so, they decide keeping the soul but getting another winner´s point of view. Remix duties on Oxi were counted on the eclectic and American producer Pezzner. He introduces a delicate and organic piece of electronica keeping the heart and soul of the original mix and adding new and astonishing layers of synths that blows your head out. It is time now for Smash TV, Villanova and Danny Serrano. All of them reinventing The Show. The Berliner duo Smash TV -well known by their releases on Bpitch Control, Get Physical or Diynamic- keeps the soul of the original track with a superb touch of analogue simplicity, in the other hand the new synth defiantly brings a new dimension to the track. French duo Villanova, meanwhile, goes deeper and hypnotic, with an awesome cinematic rework. The bass takes you on a trip thru the several layers, including more parts of the Sutja Gutierrezs voice. They have turned the The Show upside-down but understanding the original script. Danny Serrano surprises everyone with a disco-oriented and analogue cut. A must have! On this fascinating journey we will find some sophisticated techno. Is the case of the shadowy Bristolian and Drumcode regular dubspeeka who turns in a thunderous rework Flashcrash. As a result: a deep mysterious groover riddled with body shaking synths and dark atmospheric touches. Working on the same title Flashcrash- São Paulo-based Renato Cohen demonstrates once again his natural talent on the groove, utilising snippets of the original's dynamic vocal layered with scratchy percussion loops. Moment now for a true the legend of electronic house music, is on a creative roll. A globally respected artist: Dave Seaman. The British reworks Between Us, turning the ethereal track into a driving-groover, harnessing the originals gorgeous synth melodies and introducing darker tones and vocal snippets. Former Diynamic and Get Physical producers Audio Junkies delivers a top notch work for Someone in the Sky. An intricate tech-house experience, blending an eery lead synth with a solid groove and a hypnotic vocal on repeat. Kicking off Esclafit is Sicilian DJ/producer, Paul Ursin, turning the playful Electronic number into a sinister, deep-groover. Rising German upstart Habischmans remix of Dreamback follows, adding silky vocals that perfectly compliment the steady four-to-the-floor House rhythm. While Mattia Pompeo is keeping alive the techno-flame on Ikigai, Barcelona-based Brunetto faces the challenge delivering a subtle and elegant remix, staying true to the original yet adding a bit more spice. Moodily blends house, clicking percussion, sunny little melodies, warm atmospheres and neo-shoegaze noise stylings. Another artist from the Spanish-Armada, Elojet, surprises with an electrifying, solid and unstoppable House-Disco-Techno rework of Mareny. Smart drums and analogue-sounding synth-lines. M.in and D-Lees remix of the same track -Mareny- is next, seeing the pair utilising the originals driving synths and fusing them with layered drums and looped vocals. Rising Spanish talent Squire turns AFFKT and Upercents track Boria into a deep, understated House number, retaining the psychedelic palette whilst still pushing the track in new directions. Uruguayan producer, Fernando Lagreca makes his own an enigmatic track, Ceniza, and reworks it into a striving six-minute groover, combining the originals absorbing synths with an array of warming pads and other electronica effects. And finally, closing this multiverse of infinite scenarios, Wavekikis edit of Someone in the Sky, featuring Sutja Gutierrez. This 7-minute outing brings Sutjas silky vocals to the front of the track, introducing nuances of strings and guitars to great effect.
