Retro House List

Artist: Giorgio Moroder vs. I-Robots
Title: Utopia - Me Giorgio (The I-Robots Reconstructions)
Label: Deeplay Digital / Opilec Music 
Release: February 28th 2014
Cat. No.: DD 005
Format: Vinyl/Digital

For its next release, the resurgent Deeplay Digital offers up three new versions of a classic and previously unreleased (on 12” at least) disco-fried Giorgio Moroder track in the form of ‘Utopia – Me Giorgio’. The remixer is Opilec Music boss, I-Robots, who has reworked classic Moroder material before and who is a huge fan of the disco and electronic music pioneer Einzelgänger.

The concept of this release was simply to create longer versions of the track that was originally included in the From Here To Eternity partially mixed album – incredibly no one else has officially done this since the original release date in 1977. Importantly, though, because the track is so seminal, the remixes are all hugely sympathetic affairs that don’t change the atmosphere or intentions of the original artist.

Up first is the ‘I-Robots 1977 Reconstruction’, which has just seen the original extended from 3:23 minutes to almost 7 minutes (all these reconstructions are long). The result is a fantastic thing that is now perfectly suited to club play with fulsome modern production, a revisited version that is a perfect reinterpretation maintaining the spirit of the ’77 original.

For the ‘I-Robots 2014 Tape Reconstruction’, the remixer had a dream that he found an old original Moroder tape in a flea market and used it to beef up this track. The addition of analog tape background noise gives the mix a dirty and dusty vintage sound and as such it now has a strong and powerful impact with infectious drums, frazzled synth lines and plenty of meaty disco dazzle.

Finally, The ‘I-Robots 2014 Reconstruction’ is the clean version of the Tape Reconstruction with a powerful tech-house beat underpinning it, making it the version most suited to heavy dancefloor usage.

The vinyl release includes only the 1977 and the 2014 Tape Reconstructions and is handled exclusively by Opilec Music.

The Comeback Kid

Featuring phenomenal fecundity and remarkable talent, Konstantin Isaev aka Volta Cab, is one of the few russian artists, was able to win real recognition on the world stage. Discography measured in dozens of original tracks and remixes, mostly vinyl, including Isaev, Tokma and Common People aliases. Among the musical landmarks of Volta Cab are, on the one hand – a proven classic disco and detroit house like Motor City Drum Ensemble; on the other hand, Volta Cab’s music does not have any limits, flirting with lo-fi, hip-hop, stupefying balearic and chicago house chords, futuristic 2-step and post- jazz side of the garage. Only he can simultaneously publish a proto-jungle at UK Hypercolour, and mutant disco at respected label Eskimo. He prefers to play live-acts with his own eclectic vision of electronic music.

With  forthcoming releases on Nein, Bordello A Parigi and Dalmata Daniel, Volta Cab is one of the producers to watch from East Europe.

Enjoy this free track as much as we do.

Here is a bootleg remix which I made for my live set on Beats In Space last September. It was only a very rough edit at the time, just the modular squawking away. But here it is after some care and attention, all finished, and downloadable.

You can watch a (sort of) video I made for the track here: https://rex.lnk.to/grooveytSo

I’m fascinated by how music makes the body move. Specially when the sound waves are extraordinarily in sync with your vibration. I play music to create such moments.
