Review:
Those who may have been surprised at the appearance of Boys Noize on Cocoon last year were probably more surprised by the sound of that single, "Adonis" - swapping his trademark abrasion for a more delicate, hypnotic sound accented by rising synths. This remix EP continues with the surprises, as the master of mid-tempo grooves, Mark E is drafted in for two reworks of the track. His first remix creates a fractured take on the original, as warped synths fight through waves of compressed fuzz, whilst his "Acid Dub" is a darker 303 led take on the track. Djedotronic opts to subtly tweak the original and make a sustained buildup the focal point of the track, while Terence Fixm,er creates a big room monster, isolating the vocal sample and adding seismic bass. Finally Patrick Kunkel turns in a chunky rework built around slamming kicks and razor sharp cymbals.
