Brian Benson At Juno Download

Review: Continuing the trend that Ricardo Villalobos started with his Sei Es Drum releases, Benson and Gull's "Children" uses an evocative sample of children singing, and sets it to a drummy backing. It's not the most innovative release granted, but there is something deeply haunting and alluring about the voices that guarantees it'll grab everyone's attention. The remixes are more DJ friendly, with Matt Star delivering two rolling, filtered grooves that sit somewhere between party techno and tool-house, while Philip Bader's version strips back the arrangement to focus on a booming bass and driving percussion. However, if you're looking for a summer club hit in waiting, then the original version is the one.
