New Northern Irish quintet recently signed to Warner Bros. release their debut single with remixes from My Digital Enemy, Tronik Youth and Karl G. Produced by Youth, and with a vast range of influences from the Chemical Brothers, Muse and Oasis the band has got several creative sparks for their sound.
My Digital Enemy provide an electro house makeover and true to their usual style and sound, have produced a remix that easily fits into a normal house set alongside a more electro sounding set with a mid ranged balanced mix. Using a lot of the vocal and elements of the original track, it’s a nice upbeat offering with a cool added bassline that lifts it into more club territory. Whilst it doesn’t re invent the wheel, it’s got a somewhat catchy housey feeling throughout that makes it appealing to a whole host of Dj’s.
Tronik Youth opts for a reverse with totally overhauling the track and making into somewhat of a deeper nastier approach. A bubbling bass and acidic styled edge give it more edge for the club floors. The elements of the original track seem to be more fitting and used better and more in keeping with a club vibe to me. The acidic part really lifts it and carried the track through to the end.
Karl G finishes things off with a heavier peak time tougher edged sound. This mix will from the outset gain far more rotation and attention, its much more club orientated in comparison to the other mixes and has a slightly heavier sound which is needed when the original tracks elements are used as it acts as a contrasting sound, a more up to date bass makes it all seem much more workable and could be played later in the night.
