repress! sfire is a duo consisting of jeffrey sfire and his friend from london. jeffrey, one of detroits favorite djs, known for his 80s dance, italo and chicago house sets alongside ultramajic friends mike servito and carlos souffront. sfire is the latest record with two burning hot songs manicured with a drexciya meets pet shop boys tip. one of our most id d tracks of 2015.

hot on the heels of the co-release between especial and cocktails d amore music of the sfire remixes ep (ees023/cda013) comes an accompanying release with a pair of deeper, stripped back remixes from the inimitable timothy j fairplay and willie burns.

sometimes great records need time to grow… it took a while to finally present john talabot s fantastic versions of the already stone cold classic from sfire.

played by agcp/dr cuts(plus seven), sergio rizzolo, malka tuti
emotional especial and cocktail d amore music enter cahoot-mode once again with a second round of sfire remixes that take proceedings down a deeper, more stripped-back path courtesy of the inimitable timothy j fairplay and willie burns. two artists who need little introduction offer up two remixes each that take the unique original to new dance floor extremes. timothy steps up first with his take on -sfire 2- via differing vocal and instrumental versions. his trademark, echo laden rolling percussion and john carpenter-style key lines take the original synth-pop homage to the dark room. adding arps, a lifting, hedonistic breakdown and the scatter-stepper drums and claps found on the instrumental version and this is pure cotf territory and the better for it. mr willie burns meanwhile has long followed his own path for his take on -sfire 3-, offering one of his deepest remixes to date. thudding kick, brooding pads and dark strings force the vocals to go down, way down for examination. the distorted vocals of remix 1 are countered by remix 2 letting the track shine via a seemingly endless 4/4 beat. psychedelic, trance inducing, pulsating, this is an ever growing mind expanse.
