an acclaimed young five piece from leeds, stateless have already displayed their mastery of beat driven guitar and turntable rock on previous releases. but their third single bloodstream, is their masterpiece. a 21st century blues ballad built from cinematic hip hop beats, super heavy bass and perfumed piano. it sounds both heartbroken and drunk on its own romantic intoxication. the berlin based producer and remixer henrik schwarz, one of germanys most respected djs, brings his trademark love of jazz and deep house to his version. schwarzs remix re engineers the track as a sleek dance tune, speeding up chris vocal into a restless, nervy, emotionally naked torch song. by contrast, the chic parisian re edit maestro pilooski strips the track down into a cubist collage of rhythmic throbs and sparkles, with a staccato piano melody pulsing through it like a heartbeat. its a playful and vibrant fusion, where soul baring yorkshire poetry meets sleek french disco chic.
