Review: The second release on Wagon Repair offshoot Freedom Engine is again courtesy of co-head Mathew Jonson - and here's another round of remixes of his anthemic track "Decompression" from 2004. This round of versions sure have their work cut out for them when remixing such a seminal classic - and here's how they fare out: Cynosure head honcho Mike Shannon serves up a moody and tripped-out tech house perspective, the unusual trio of GMT (Phil Moffa, Guy Gerber and Seth Troxler) stay true to the original, although lace it with some funky tribal rhythms on their mix while dub techno veteran Deadbeat offers up an impressive downbeat deconstruction. Lastly, Colombia's Natalia Escobar - who is hot off a killer release on EXIT Records diffusion imprint Heart Drive goes deeper down the spiral on her dark ambient perspective.
