Search - Various Artists :: Versatile Hot Shots

The gunholders of Versatile Records are back with a new compilation. They saved their most deadly cartridges for this total overkill record of exclusive remixes, some of which are available on CD for the very first time. They open the album with a shot straight to the head: "Silent Distance" is a classy pop track remixed by I:Cube featuring Clara Hill's beautiful vocals. Then comes the UFO manga-style track "Ongaku" which blends Chateau Flight's unique electro dub touch to the surprising vocals of shibuya girls, Paris Japanese Choir. Joakim presents us his latest dancefloor killer, the hypnotic "I Wish You Were Gone," haunted by the spook of Ian Curtis and sung by Joakim himself. Then the very trippy remix of "Superflight" by Maurice Fulton comes as a necessary recess before full electronic fire with tracks "Rumours" by As One (aka Kirk Degeorgio), "Arp Surface" and "Chicago Sur Seine" by I:Cube, or "Surface And Submerge" by Basic Soul Unit. At last, the very cosmic track "Taurus" extracted from I:Cube's Live at the Planetarium waves a white flag to finish off the compilation. 2006.
