Manchester producer Bobby Ganoush gets his hands on New Order’s greatest hits. The result: two club-ready reworks you didn’t know you needed, until now. 

Taking on two tracks from one of the most critically acclaimed and influential bands of the 1980s is no easy feat. But, with over 20 years experience in the dance music industry, Bobby Ganoush delivers a pair of punchy, high octane tracks; both of which have been tackled with the utmost respect, handled with an attentive ear and never lose the essence of the seminal originals. 

With a musical history producing under a number of different monikers, previously remixing The Clash and Bob Marley, whilst engineering and mastering tracks for a range of artists, Bobby Ganoush is no stranger to the needs of a dancefloor, something which is reiterated with this release. 

His take on ‘True Faith’ doesn’t stray too far away from the quintessential eighties sound, beginning with an elongated, synth-heavy instrumental intro, we’re then introduced to Bernard Sumner’s instantly recognisable voice as the track begins to peak. This rework uses the best bits of the Shep Pettibone vocal and dub mixes, alongside explosive percussion and a reinforced bottom end to give it more weight, whilst using just three verses. This setup undoubtedly lends itself more to a club - with a steady pace and a warmth of familiarity, this track will ensure a hands-in-the-air moment on many a night out.

Bobby Ganoush’s rework of New Order’s biggest track is of a similar considerate vein. Opening with extended elements from Kraftwerk’s ‘Uranium’ (which was originally sampled for ‘Blue Monday’) alongside Kraftwerk’s ‘Numbers’, he adds even more substance before blazing into the fundamental ingredients of the original, iconic track. The unmistakable “How does it feel?” echos as tumbling drums and broken beats take the lead, before it’s ignited again with signature synths. With Bobby Ganoush's deep rooted association with Manchester's dance scene, it’s no surprise he’s taken a standout approach to reimagining one of the Hacienda's most iconic records.

Might I suggest that seeing as Soundcloud's stupidly outmoded copyright policy makes it very hard to upload ANY mixes, you should go to some of these pages to find mixes that I daren't try to post here:
