Storm Queen At Juno Download

Review: Given the runaway crossover success of the (utterly superb) Storm Queen debut "Look Right Through", it was inevitable that producer Morgan Geist and vocalist Damon C Scott would try and repeat the trick. This follow-up single treads similar ground to its illustrious predecessor, lacing Scott's evocative vocals over Geist's delightful vintage house grooves (which, of course, come blessed with the Metro Area man's usual 808 disco sheen). It's a touch deeper than the super-hooky "Look Right Through", but that's no bad thing. While it's unlikely to scale the heights of its predecessor, "It Goes On" is still an excellent record. The dub, in particular, is spot on.

Review: Hands down one of the defining tunes of the last few years, "Look Right Through" has made Morgan Geist's side-project, Storm Queen, a top draw among modern house fans. This brand new set of official remixes won't hurt that upward trajectory, as Jamie Jones, Aeroplane and Dimitri From Paris get stuck into this sensational NYC anthem sung by Damon C. Scott. Hot Creations' Jamie Jones goes in for a tasty mainroom-friendly extension that replaces the fluttering chords of the original with a driving acid groove, while Aeroplane turns in an Arp-rockin' Italo rerub that matches the vocal perfectly. Staying most faithful to Geist's original beat though is Dimitri From Paris, whose "Erosdiscomix" embellishes the feel of the original with huge cymbal crashes and piano layers. Let's hope part two of these remix releases is just as hot.
