Label chief and king of NYC late night mythology, Francois K returns with a bit of his patented deep space madness. Starting with a tempo reminiscent of a 45 played at 33 1/3, a delicate plucked bell-synth bathed in a medium hall reverb leaves ethereal impressions and late night energy. As the melody drops a minor third, another enchanting counter melody joins the mix and adds a rather divine legato styling. After the lead fades out, a percussive interlude full of syncopated noise hits develops; leaving room for a break that reintroduces the main vibe and instills a sense of resolution.
The flip carries a remix from Quiet Village, who has been starting Deep Space nights with positively solid performances. Taking a more club-hyped approach, this rework pounds forward with a massive rumbling kick drum and an underlying noise wash. The main lead gets some serious filter and delay treatment making for a more progressive drive and a versatile dancefloor hook. Tweaking things a bit at the break, the melody morphs into a sort of Latin-minded groove with portamento glides, edited accents and sharper hits. Still keeping the passion and charm alive, the new demise accents Francois’s tasteful tune while boasting contemporary excitement. Built with years of experience rocking the world over, this installment in the evolving story of FK’s studio sound brings enlightenment through the use of engineered electronics and massive audio constructs.
