The Art Of Letting Go

And there they fly once again! This time around, Kompakt's newborn superheroes Michael Mayer and Superpitcher aka SUPERMAYER get assigned to rescue their friend Ewan Pearson from the greedy Psychoprogs slippery tentacles. And in all honestly, what our witty Englishman in Berlin has done with that cheeky, punkish disco song from "Save The World" is really of a class of its own. In his ingenious Dub Mix, Ewan puts the focus on all those weird and absurd details hidden in the background of the original track. To hear it makes one feel somewhat like viewing the original through a microscope and discovering a previously unknown universe of it's existence. He takes these funny little creatures and lets them ride on a thunderous, bass-heavy groove which doesn't take any prisoners. Such a unlikely but highly effective combination of darkish minimal and absurd ideas is hard to find (with the exception of DJ Koze's oeuvre). Of course the original (what's come from fans as an album favorite) party cracker is present on the flipside's pole position, followed by an jolly good instrumental edit by Mr Pearson once again. He stays real close to the original but as soon as nobody's looking he starts flirting with some unknown musical genre that might have taken it's origin with Armand van Helden's 'Phunk Phenomena'. You're wondering what that sounds like? Listen and see...
