Naum Gabos (Optimo member) remix creds include Franz Ferdinand, Hot Chip and MGMT. Psycatron is a recent R&S and Planet E signing. BIG REMIXES!

We always felt like we missed the boat a little. Looking back it feels ahead of what was going on." The first Gigolo release of 2010 is the closing track of much lauded Psychonauts album. Original released in 2003, we have lovingly re-mastered, re-packaged and re-released, with a bonus track, arguable one of the most inspiring albums in dance music. So it seems fitting to start the end the decade with something from the beginning and to introduce the re-release of this marvellous album, with the end. Confused? Well that's OK, in the words of Michael J. Gelb 'Confusion is the welcome mat at the door of creativity... '

'9 times out of 10 a song would start with a musical sample and a drum loop and we would start building with instruments or more samples.' 'Take Control' falls into the 90% bracket of the above quote, but in this instance Paul and Pablo had Sam Lynham in mind when they came to the writing. As the writer and vocalist for the band Gramme Sam was at the forefront of the late 90's Post-Punk revival setting the blueprint for bands like The Rapture and The Gossip to follow. Taking a rough Demo to Floods Assault and Battery studio the three set out recording and writing the rest of the song. Samples, synths and then Dave Bateman's bass and weird atmospheric noises were all recorded and mixed and the song finally took shape as a constantly evolving, genre-defining piece of music that takes a almost regal place as the album swan song.

In the spirit of all good creativity, here comes the contradiction, this re-release comes with two very genre specific remix's that we at Gigolo like to call Techno. First up is Naum Gabo aka Jonnie Wilkes (Optimo member) and James Savage who's remix credentials include Franz Ferdinand, Hot Chip and MGMT. Taking the original song and placing it into a very daring arrangement, the likes of which we have not seen since Kenny Dopes 'The Bomb.' On the flip side is Psycatron, recent R&S and Planet E signing and Beatport chart topper (6 weeks in the Top 20 – crikey), providing a dubbier affair. What the track lacks in Vocals it makes up for in Dance floor Dynamic, which we expect to feature heavily at Bergheim for most of 2010, the Time that year forgot...
