2009 remix of 2005 classic!!

welcome to the world of mysterious organist & producer dan electro. dan electro is a charming guy who lives very far away from the sytem of babylon. his music is out of time... it carries the reminiscence of a time when people played music simply for the love of it... his touch is magnetic, mystical and inspired. dan electro musics really got soul. but the man has a complex background... for a long time, he played bass for the slow slushy boys, a band that still performs today one of the best rooted rythm & blues around the world. dan electro finds a great part of his inspiration within the universe of geniuses like louis jordan, eddie kirk, the five royales and the barefoot gospel divas sister rosetta tharpe or winona carr... and he is still involved in music that talks to both your ass and your soul... with a preference for the first !
the lucky discovery of farley jackmaster funks >fix me< revealed dan electro the connections between black music at its core roots and contemporary house music. shortly after, he started producing some amazing tunes that felt like love affairs between old church organs and mad computers... sung by ageless preachers & divas. his music has been played by djs such as gilles peterson, joey negro, sumo, recloose, dj morpheus, spiritual south, nick v, michael rutten, rainer truby, nik weston, unabombers, erik rug, philarmonix, patchworks, stevie sole... radios as bbc 1, frequence jazz, xfm scotland, radio fg, compost radioshow... enjoy !

restoration records highly awaited eighth release is the most powerful sonic weapon to face up this hard times. captain power and the soldiers of the future will lead the riot of the machines in order to restore the analogue kingdom. humans and machines, blood and fire, souls and transistors are operating together to fight the conformism and the loss of values imposed by the mass communication of this post-industrial era.
third side is the new operative group of restoration, formed by marieu, lucretio and by resident dj of panorama bar steffi (klakson/ostgut ton). >ready to dance< is a dancefloor disco-bomb, funky and sexy but minimalistic at the same time. very essential in its build-up, its bass line is addicting and relentless and its bass drum is powerful. we are ready to dance, its time to jack!
analogue cops >chamber< is a strong dark track in which a massive 808 drum explosion runs together with an ultra-pitched down voice sample. rushing percussions, piercy hi-hats, a breathless progression. an experiment which turns into a solid club tack.
on side b, >still me< represents lucretios vocation to neoclassicism. the time disappears and a gospel organ full of motown reminiscences reminds the most soulful works appeared on planet earth. dramatic and sweet, its evocative and hopeful. lucretios track on rst006 appears on tama sumos >panorama bar – mix cd<.
>mauzy< is marieus deepest track on restoration. beat-down smashing 909 drums, punchy snares, delightful piano chords, sharp cymbals, a praising voice. a track for a spiritual elevation, a track to dance until the last second. a track to listen to a million of times.

one of ibizas top summer of 2007 songs, revered dennis ferrers >touched the sky< is served up three different ways here. managing to make its gospel house chorus sound almost scary yet distinctly house, joe claussells remixes defiantly add something new to this song. multi-layered and complex, the song rewards listeners with finding something new about the track every time its spun on the dance floor. and the deep, diva style vocals from mia tuttavilla are warped in >joes dub beats< into static-y notes that fit perfectly inside the hidden pockets of this remix. this is perfect music for after-hours. and in the same vein, >yass dubstrumental< adds another layer of something fresh andstraight out of left field on this massive hit from ferrer

thom yorke is the pen, voice and soul of the rock group radiohead he has just released a solo album the eraser and that is where this story begins. abandoning his guitar get-along gang for the cold warmth of his computer and underhyping an album that should be plastering the walls and buses of your local city, the anxiety ridden and morose yorke cuts to the core of the dark state of humanity, unapologetically commenting on the zombies that were once humans. on this extremely limited 12,the album title track the eraser( already big with timmy regisford ) gets remixed in a distorted detroit style by slow to speak, following up on the recent bjork, u2 & arc gospel choir reworkings. on the flip is various acapellas of thom speaking on the current state of society and commerce and the radiohead song climbing up the walls, which in some strange dysfunctional way is married lyrically to the eraser. comes in a hand made silk screened jacket
