gluteus maximus come up with some great dancefloor work feat. mixes by kaspar björke & north beach.

it has been nearly two years since superpitcher released his equally lunatic and magistral album >kilimanjaro<: an eternity for club life, but not more than a stones throw for legendary producer axel schaufler, whose idiosyncratic mixture of yearning romance and hedonistic folly repeatedly stunned the public with its perceived timelessness.

originally recorded and produced in london by liam watson (white stripes, holly golightly, james hunter) at his analog mecca toe rag studios now treated and mistreated for a driving psychedelic dance floor stomper without comparison.

hello and welcome to the new decade. we are kicking off the 10s with a smash from the 00s - as a hinge between the decades, so to say. adas >lovestoned< was everybodys favourite track from her fabulous >adaptations< album, a milestone of romatic techno with vocal support by raz o hara. one of this songs biggest admirers is president bongo of gusgus fame. together with jack shidt he forms the dynamic duo gluteus maximus which already caused a stir with their amazing remix for sigur ros >gobbledigook< on kompakt pop. their lovestoned remix is astounding, too. sex, modern, efficient without losing one gramm of soul. the flipside is taken care of gui boratto who is never far away when techno meets pop in such a sensitive way. his remix makes all great things from the original a bit greater and its pushing the romance factor to the max.
great job, comme d habitude!

>gobbldigook< is the spectacular opener of sigur ros recent album >med sud i eyrum vid spilum endalaust<, undeniably one of the most hymnic songs they have written thus far. fellow islanders stephen stephenson aka presidentbongo (of gus gus fame) and jack schidt couldnt resist but to transform the complex, polyrhythmic original into an exceptionally ethereal club track. when the angelic voice of jon birgisson unfolds on a club soundsystem it reallyfeels like you are in heaven. the ultraslim percussion groove takes over the tribalistic atmosphere of the original but catapults it some hundered light years forward into the future. thomas fehlmanns remix on the flipside is nothing short but sensational. we have no clue how he managed to turn this song into a schaffel but we salute him and take this as another unmistakable sign that the schaffelfieber is rising again in cologne, berlin, reykjavik andelsewhere ...

since its foundation in the year 1995, reykjaviks gus gus are working hard to make this world a less boring place. initially tagged by the press as the next big icelandic music export after bjoerk, the band swept away all cliche thinking with their highly infectuous metrosexual multimedia pop and secured themselves a deal with the prestiguous 4ad label. &#8233,,,since then a lot of hot water has been ejected by icelands geysers but gus gus miraculously always managed to combine avantgarde with pop, soul and of most prominently - with electronic music. especially with their furious live shows they ve earned themselves a devoted following worldwide. &#8233,,,&#8233,,,this years september will bring us the release of their sixth studio album that goes by the name 24/7. at this point, we dont want to let too much of the cat out of the bag but its certainly right to say that they ve once more reinvented themselves and the result is truely breathtaking. as we re convinced that the world-embracing harmonies and impeccable catchiness of add this song should be heard during this summer season, so we ve decided to already share this with you now. &#8233,,,&#8233,,,the remixes all sound as excellent as their producers: patrick chardronnet, lopazz & zarook and gluteus maximus...
