Review: Some 12 months on from its release, Bruno "Xinobi" Cardosa has handed over the parts to his quietly impressive debut album, 1975, to a crack team of remixers. It's Psychemagik who arguably impress the most, building up an atmospheric, tribal-influenced rhythm on their version of "Bogota", before turning the track into a throbbing, druggy, big room house beast. Munk's version of Afrobeat-influenced cut "Crime" is a Balearic disco treat - think woozy fretless bass, chiming melodies and glistening guitars - while Cut Slack turn "Real Fake" into a suitably loved-up chunk of loose-limbed, sun-kissed synth-pop. It's a formidably breezy rework, and one that should sound as good in a club as it does on your car stereo.
Review: Portugal's Moulinex, otherwise known as Luis Clara Gomes, has made his name on his native Discotexas label, an outlet reserved for positive, disco-filtered house music. This latest effort sees Gomes' "Take A Chance" tune being rewired, remangled and transformed by a pair of remixers; the first is by Satin Jackets who goes for a strictly hazy, utterly boogied-out approach for the summer months, while Black Loops takes care of turning the original into a dark, dubby and pulsating floor stomper with subtle filter-house waves.
