IT'S A WAR - DAVE MATHMOS(RIELABORATO)

I love these two crazy dudes, they're a little like me in a way, and they made some killer tunes in the 80's. Like this one =) The original John Luongo remix ran at 9:35 but it was really difficult to play out as the drums kept running all over the place. I managed to keep the first 16 bars of this edit pretty constant at 122 BPM and the end lead-in and break as well - it's a wee bit long at 12:23 (ha ha) but it's good for those times when you need a smoke break (given the way most clubs and bars are these days...heh) pardon the scratchy bits in the drop....

The Human league "Things that dreams are made of" (Ilya Santana remix)

Discovered by Manchester music guru Tony Wilson, owner of Factory Records, at The Haçienda in the ’80s, Madchester rave band Happy Mondays influenced a generation through their meld of rock-meets-dance songs and kinetic live performances. French DJ/producer Lifelike (a.k.a. Laurent Ash) counts himself one of the band’s diehard admirers. In fact, his fondness for the Mondays is so strong that he took it upon himself to craft a rousing remix of their classic breakthrough track “Hallelujah” — a single from their 1989 Madchester Rave On EP — which we are honored to world premiere. Even better is that his homage to the acid-house gem is a free download you can grab and enjoy.

“I’ve always been fascinated by the birth of rave culture in the late ’80s,” the Parisian mixmaster tells us, “especially Factory Records which I have an unlimited admiration for the quality of their releases with bands like New Order, Joy Division and The Happy Mondays. I thought I would giveaway this revisited DJ remix I did for Happy Mondays biggest club hit ‘Hallelujah.’ Hope this will bring back some good 1989 Summer Of Love vibes on your turntables!”
