Following the fevered reception of their 2018 single “HAL,” the union between main stage lovemaker Kölsch and techno iceman Tiga has returned with “Hand in Hand,” a rapturous exercise in sacral catharsis that many are calling the ultimate set closer. 

Emboldened to use his natural speaking voice for the first time on the title track, Tiga is eager to open up about this sentimental departure from his usual fare: “When it comes down to it, I’m an emotional frogman, When I hear a beating heart, I dive right in heart-first.”

Meanwhile, B-side “Almost Everything” takes the vibe into Kölsch’s signature indescribable euphoric heights. So indescribable in fact that we had to ask BO, Turbo’s proprietary AI and Metadata Scraper, to analyze the track based on tempo, emotional valence, and “fun factor”. His conclusion: “Total banger.” Thanks, BO!

The release is rounded out by two remixes of “Hand in Hand,” one a bout of peak-time insanity from Irish underground icon Rebuke and the other an immaculate techno odyssey from Montreal hinterground luminary Priori.

Reflecting on just what he’s achieved here with his Danish friend Kölsch, Tiga is characteristically thoughtful: “Would you rather have a gun in your hand, or a hand in your hand? If you even have to think about the answer, you need to open your heart ASAFP because nothing less than the future of love and music hangs in the balance. It’s entirely up to you."

Coming Home (feat. John Martin) [Vintage Culture Remix]

To close out another successful year, ICONYC bring us the 2nd remix reissue of 'London' from label boss John Johnson. The seminal track was released on the famed English Ministry of Sound imprint 'IDJ 'and gained huge popularity after receiving heavy play from both Sasha and John Digweed. It continued the wave of success for the New York based producer and remains a standout piece on his meticulous discography. Regarded as one of the defining tracks in the progressive house golden era it's irresistible hooks have stood the test of time remarkably well. For the second remix edition and to celebrate nearly 25 years since its original release, ICONYC have called upon James Harcourt, Torsten Fassbender & Darbinyan to update the track.

The first interpretation of 'London' is provided by James Harcourt who returns to ICONYC in style. The English born producer really does not need any introduction. James who has been the benchmark and stand out reference for with meticulous productions for many a year. Mr. Harcourt delivers a compelling interpretation of 'London'. Low slung bass stabs, vibrant percussion and spacey electronics, all wrapped together with the distinctive rhythms from the original make for a deep and engaging first act. Suave synths and distinct drum fills further the tracks sonic scope before it begins to strip down into the main break. The suspense filled interlude is fueled with those unmistakable rhythms before a series of beats lets the synth loose once more for the ultimate finale. Another classy interpretation from James Harcourt.

The second interpretation of 'London' is provided by Torsten Fassbender. The Berlin based producer has achieved an amazing level of critical and commercial success in recent times. As one of his country's most talented music producers he has proven his skill in professional sound design and contemporary electronic music. His unique fusion of techno beats and progressive minded sensibilities continues to be one of the underground's freshest sounds. Beginning with a fluid yet bouncy revamp of the groove, the German producers' distinctive sonic hallmarks begin to work their way into the mix. Momentous rhythms along with complementary tones lift the vibe higher as the track reaches the main break. The interlude showcases a storyboard of rising modulation and atmospheric pressures which build to a tasteful apex before the unmistakable groove returns for a great moment. A sensational remix from Torsten Fassbender which will stand the test of time.

Armenia sensation Darbinyan closes out the release in style with two outstanding renditions of 'London'. In recent years Darbinyan has been famed for his revisions and he's worked that magic once again for two compelling interpretations of 'London'. On a foundation of freeform bass swells comes arpeggiated clusters and processed string assembles. Warm and rushy at points yet delicate and impassioned at others, the first act proves to be the prefect prelude to a dramatic break before concluding with a strong finale. The second version is a sensational laidback edit, that factors in the low end, as well as the monumental groove. The remix is playing nicely off the chilled rhythmic qualities and dulcet hooks which drift in and out of the framework. The smooth beats and the laidback tonal theme rise, while peaking with a wave of calmness of beats and the deep bass. Two striking creations from Darbinyan, who delivers cutting-edge interpretations to round out part 2 of the London remixes on a strong note. Don't miss them!
