Words by Inte Direkt:

"...in the spring of 2015, Sweden's Klumpfisk returns after more than six years of silence, to give 'DJ Ease My Mind' a new intriguing incarnation.

Klumpfisk's version of 'DJ Ease My Mind' uses its generous 8:27 for casual space disco vibes as well as bursting drama. By the time the first verse breaks in after two minutes of ambient monotone buildup, the remix' peculiar rhythm concept starts to get prominent: The vocals have been rearranged to match a 3/4 pattern! This time signature is rather unique for a modern dance track, but excitingly enough the beat of this remix proves to be as danceable as a straight 4/4 groove.

Soon there are more twists to discover, as it turns out Klumpfisk has attached the chorus of the original track to chords borrowed from British post-punk act The Durutti Column, in a way resemblant of French style filter house.

Around 4 minutes in, the beat drops off as the mix prepares for a loud climax, and shortly synth and guitar cooperate to create intense surges. The drama eventually fade away and the listener is left with a hollow post-climactic mood as the track finishes off using a more restrained setting for the last chorus, thereby seeming to bring even more power to singer Malin Dahlström's words.

[...]

It is unclear whether the Niki and the Dove remix is intented to be a first evidence of a lasting return to music, or if it's a one-off effort that will have us waiting another six years until a next release."
