Gigi Galaxy aka Gary Martin
INTERVIEW WITH AN ALIEN
(REISSUE W/ DELANO SMITH REMIX)
DET 313 / DET313ER

Reissue of the 1996 Gigi Galaxy (aka Gary Martin) track with new Delano Smith remix.
A hard to find sci-fi Detroit techno classic - it's featured everywhere from Marcel Dettmann to Zip's SW sets.- gets a timely reissue complete with a new, super solid Delano Smith remix. It's hard not to love the original in all its futuristic glory, led by a sturdy four-to-the-floor pummelling but boasting a throbbing neo-disco bassline - imagine a lost Gorgio Moroder classic being remade by Jeff Mills in PurposeMaker mode. But the Delano Smith remix updates it for modern palates, ironically by delving back even further, to the early 70s model Kraftwerk from whom he borrows some very austere but classy synth sounds and a touch of electro syncopation. Take your pick according to mood, they both do the job admirably.[info sheet from distr.]
