DIGITAL ONLY: RE.YOU - THIS WAY (ADAM PORT REMIX)

For the third instalment of the always-qualitative VARIOUS ARTISTS collection, Ali and Basti (Tiefschwarz) have found some treasures among the freshest demos of their closest friends from Berlin, Ruede Hagelstein and Re.You.  Not surprisingly, Souvenir N°28 has the creative energy and the diversity of a successful party weekend in the German Capital.

Ruede Hagelstein releases music infrequently, always taking his time to carefully craft each of his productions.  Fortunately, he often brings his creations to Souvenir with tracks like ‘Semikolon’ or his latest remix for elle p & iftah, which are certainly at the forefront of all-time classics of Tiefschwarz sets.

In charge of the A-side of Souvenir 028, Ruede shows once again with ‘Emergency’, that he knows how to treat an after-party stomper.  Perfect early morning pick, the sun shines on his bongos, the nonsense raves with his lyrics, the horns roar with delight, and a plane flies over a crowd of happy, sleepless dancers.  Damn…Ruede did it again!

Equally crooked and uplifting, ‘Friday’ is led by the jazzy beat of the drums to a dark alley, where guys with bats wait to give a beat down…Ouch!

Re.You, brother to Santé, had his first entry on the label with ‘Lumo’ on Souvenir+4.  With these first two tracks released on vinyl, Re.You proves that there are two growing talents in the Maier Family.  With ‘Périlleux’, hypnotic is certainly the first word that comes to mind.  Its melody of synth-notes, intoxicated by rolling drums and concrete noises, twirls deep in your head.  Dizzying enough to hurl any floor into a gas-pedal dancing euphoria.

‘This Way’ on the other hand, is a rhythmically centred house number.  Catchy grooves and energizing lyrics are at the rendezvous to keep the party going on.

Guest remixer for the extended digital side of the EP, Adam Port, continues to show the Souvenir diversity of skills and delivers a highly devastating peak-time remix for ‘This Way’.
