FRANCESCO TARANTINI - THE MEDICINE MAN EP REMIXED
After the success of Francesco Tarantini's The Medicine Man EP on SSOH label, the young and impressive Italian revisits the six-track EP, hand-picking some of the brightest producers on the underground house scene to give each track a fresh breath of life.
From the dark and wonky Green Velvet-esque original, you couldn't get further from Aaron Und Pascal's dreamy re-edit of Time To Wait. The pair keep the underlying funk but embed it into softly textured synth layers that cushion the melody into a hypnotic, almost lullaby state.
Blueday Stereo return from their own foray on Claude Monnet's SSOH imprint, Forever, to remix Circles. Releasing the track from its initial bass line heavy feel, they offer up a smooth, steady remix that gently but progressively develops in delicate momentum, slowly building up layers of vocal samples from the original for a beautifully simple yet deceptively complex edit.
The riotous, 70's infused feel of La Disco is bought down a notch by The Deepshakerz, muting the heady tones of the original to produce a lounge version to suit the more subtler sets of deep disco house. On remix duty for Echoes, Berardino & Sonatore take the track away from its initial three-quarter beat, bringing it back round to 4x4, introducing lush, chugging bass elements and revitalizing organ chords for a grooving, funked-up edit.
With snare, brush and bongo drums from the start, Reegroove set about giving Downtown an intrinsically sensual, tribal touch. Percussive and snyth stabs build themselves around the vocal line, creating a moving, hip-shaking, sexually rhythmic groove. Finally Tarantini himself returns to the EP on It's House. Still keeping that deep, squelching house sound, this time round he opts for a more percussive feel instead of the original's funk-fuelled organ flavour. Losing none of the groove, depth or passion, Tarantini's Re-Work is the perfect note to end things on.
