Release Notes:
Taken from his second studio album Artificial Star and
featuring a superb vocal from Jimmie Westwood, Audio Noir's Far
From Home gets the remix treatment delivering three very
different takes on the original. Audio Noir's Rekonstruction
intros with a cool 80's electro styled drum arrangement which
delivers a dancey feel to the sound. The drums are the big
focus here and are soon joined by equally cool percussions that
etch out smooth rhythms throughout. Swirling pads offer up a
sweet melodic sequence that fizzles out to be replaced by a
heavy hitting gritty bass workout that totally transforms the
sound. That gritty bass twists and morphs with an underlying
acid tone and sits snuggly with the raspy vocal from Jimmie to
the backdrop of some seriously shuffling hi hats and stuttering
perc hits. Top notch stuff that will appeal to many for sure.
The legend that is Airwave takes on remix duties on Audio
Noir's Far From Home and delivers another slice of pure
progressive breaks that will get any venue to fever pitch.
Airwave continues to enjoy a hectic schedule as an artist and
DJ with gigs taking him all over the world. How he still finds
the time to produce top quality sounds we will never know, but
one thing we do know is he never disappoints. His recent
showing on Bonzai & Friends 500 with the exclusive Vega
Shining, was a most welcome surprise for his army of fans and
no doubt we'll be seeing much more from this guy in the future.
On the remix he takes us on an exciting journey that raises the
energy levels with that solid breaks arrangement complete with
a chunky kick and super cool snares that add a lot of character
to the sound. The drums evolve throughout the track with little
nuanced beats cropping up here and there while a wonderfully
low bass resonates all around. Simple and highly effective
short guitar riffs get the musical side flowing alongside
Jimmie's New Order-esque vocal delivery. The verses of the song
ride along so smoothly and melt into the sound while the chorus
winds up into a brilliant climactic event. Top notch from
Laurent yet again, not to be missed. Bonzai stalwart Crocy
shows up on remix duty with a fantastic progressive workout
that will light up the floors no doubt. His last outing gave us
a brilliant remix on Matan Caspi & Roy Lebens' Klubnichka as
well as an exclusive track for Bonzai & Friends 500 entitled
Bedroom Stories. The remix intros with a solid kickdrum that
pounds out a nice big chunky beat. Warm synths start to fade in
and are soon joined by a rhythmic percussion section that gets
the feet moving toward the floor. A phat probing bass comes at
us in various layers resulting in a deep driving bassline that
really ramps up the energy on the track. Short vocal snippets
creep through as the lead synth delivers an electrifying
groove. Excellent stuff yet again from Crocy that will be a
welcome addition in any set.
