Dancing In The Key Of Life 17 (with Stan Reijnen)

Signed to Rob Da Bank’s Silver Bear, Krywalk & Farrer’s debut release, The People's Asafo is a beatific genre-blending mix of Ghanaian samples and breakbeat blends over warm house grooves - perfect for the incoming sunshine season. We asked the duo, who met at Gottwood Festival, to create a mix that warms us up from the inside out, and they sure delivered. Press play and get funky in the sun...

Sometimes its blasphemous to take something so perfect and classic and try to change it but I’ve attempted it here with one of my all-time favorite songs. I first heard the original at the end of Mortal Kombat as a 12 year old haha. And this was probably the first time I ever heard a pure electronic dance track in my life! Well its all come full circle now haha. I’ve had the pads and vocals (from Opus III - Fine Day) on my HD for years but never could quite put together… until now! I hope I do justice to original and that you enjoy.

Orbital - Halcyon and On and On (Alcala Remix)

If you're an up-and-coming producer whose debut release is commanding the attention of Roman Flügel, Mano Le Tough and Bicep, it's safe to say you're doing something right. Hailing from Belfast, LOR is doing just that; his focus on hypnotic melodies and subtle experimentation gaining support from big names across the world of techno and underground electronica.

LOR's aforementioned debut release is in fact a 3-track set of remixes, on which the Irishman puts his spin on tracks from three very different musical heavyweights: Derrick Carter, Arthur Russell and Kraftwerk - the latter of which particularly peaked interests here at DT. Adapting the pioneering German band's distinctive sound to fit a more danceable framework, LOR crafts a haunting slice of techno that proves infinitely more exciting than the original to ears spoilt by the current sea of forward-thinking electronica.

Accompanying each track is a video also created by LOR. The producer has a penchant for building complex patterns from simple computer code, so he's knocked up entrancing clips that look halfway between MS-DOS and a Spirograph set. Check it out over on YouTube:

It’s rumoured that those canny folk over at Get Physical – and a host of other esteemed imprints – have already asked to hear some original material from LOR, so to keep up-to-date with this hotly-tipped talent, head over to his Twitter and SoundCloud.

All Good (LeMarquis & Marlin Remix)
