A dance music auteur with a decade-spanning career under his belt, MACEO PLEX is a man with many faces, having successfully rebranded global floors since the early noughties under various monickers, including his well-known Maetrik guise. But with power comes responsibility, as they say, and if there's one producer constantly hitting the right balance between underground antics and overground charade, it's the US-bred, Barcelona-based artist. A case in point would be future prime time banger CONJURE SUPERSTAR, a critical, yet highly danceable reading of current DJ hypes.

MACEO PLEX's latest cut is released exclusively by Kompakt and continues our collaboration with the internationally renowned beatsmith after his best-selling remix for GUSGUS' CROSSF ADE (KOMPAKT DIGITAL 040). Equally kinetic and vigorous, CONJURE SUPERST AR is a floor charmer of the highest order, sparkling with powerful sound minutiae while heading for the kind of melodic epicness that should for ever be announced with synth fanfares, starting now. It's also an integral part of the producer's ongoing "Conjure" series of releases, where he screens contemporary club culture for its creative (and human) pitfalls, stating his concern via the finely honed means of an accomplished studio magician and revered crowd favorite.

August 8th sees Intec’s esteemed label co-heads Carl Cox and Jon Rundell both put their own unique spin on Josh Wink’s illustrious 2014 hit ‘Talking To You’, distributed via the aforementioned imprint.

This impressive two-track offering follows a whole host high quality 2016 Intec releases including the Beatport chart topping ‘Intec 100’, which last saw Carl and Jon team up to deliver a release well worthy of its billing. 

Carl Cox’s interpretation commences the release, boasting the original’s ‘I’m Talking To You’ vocal sample set to a driving Tech House rhythm with a looped-up manipulated chord riff and an abundance of squelchy acid bleeps. 

Jon Rundell’s re-work follows and ventures down more of a darker Techno route, utilising the original’s vocal sample and acidline but adding a pounding TR-909-laden groove, sinister sound effects and a clever arrangement.   

You can catch the Ovum Records label boss Josh Wink perform alongside Carl at his final ever season at Space Ibiza (every Tuesday until September 20th) on August 16th.  

‘Talking To You’ (Carl Cox & Jon Rundell Remixes) is available exclusively via Beatport from August 8th and everywhere else two weeks later.

Carl Cox is an industry figure head whos legacy in music includes his iconic label Intec, which he runs with friend and business partner Jon Rundell.

This latest offering from Intec features two new and previously unreleased remixes of Carl Coxs classic track Your Light Shines On.

Your Light Shines On was originally released in 2016 as part of Intecs landmark 100th release, and the two new heavyweight remixes are provided by Pan-Pot plus Chus & Ceballos.

German duo Pan-Pot to most fans of the techno genre need little introduction having first made a name for themselves on Anja Schneiders Mobilee, before starting their own successful label known as Second State.

Spanish collaborators Chus & Ceballos focus their sound more towards house music, and along with releases on their own label Stereo Productions, have also featured on imprints including Toolroom and Defected.

Carl Coxs original version of Your Light Shines On has an underlying techno groove with tribal percussion plus Jamaican style steel drums, and each of the remix artists has focused on the elements most commonly associated with their genre in order to make the track their own.

The unstoppable Filterheadz reign supreme as the fiercest production powerhouse around, and they go 
straight for the jugular with &#8220;Kinetic Energy&#8221;. Nothing is left standing as this percussion-heavy workout 
employs old school chords, custom rising effects and futuristic stabs in order for full mayhem to ensue.

&#8220;Out Of Line&#8221; picks up as a more heads-down affair, with heavy use of the boys&#8217; custom washes and 
their now trademarked drum attack, followed by an indecipherable spoken-word vocal and busy snare
