Turbo Recordings honors one of the best albums of 2012, Zombie Nation's RGB, with a solid selection of remixes from Zoo Brazil, Popof, Modek, TWR72, joeFarr and J. Tijn.

Following the release of his 2012 album RGB, Zombie Nation is a producer at the height of his powers, massively respected by his peers. Now, Turbo has enlisted some of its favorite artists to give the album a remix package that reflects both its quality and versatility.

The newest addition to Turbo's New Jack Techno stable, Bristol-based producer joeFarr's first EP for the label earned him instant recognition, and his follow-up EP -due this spring - is massive. Swedish veteran Zoo Brazil follows his string of huge Twin Turbo releases with yet another surefire peak-time bomb. Turbo also reunites with old flame Popof, hearkening back to the days before he became a big-name festival fixture. For this release, he brings his signature sound to one of the album's standout tracks.

Meanwhile, our rich love affair with the nation of Belgium continues with a remix from emerging up-and-comer Modek, who delivers a stadium-sized banger worthy of his heritage. Dutch duo TWR82 counts the likes of Erol Alkan, Brodinski, and Laidback Luke as supporters. Their version of "Pony" is clanging big-room techno that's both stripped-down and jacked-up, if you can even imagine that. Finally, rising New Jack Techno star J. Tijn returns with more of the aggro, pounding warehouse techno he's becoming known for among people who know their shit.

RGB Remixes

Zombie Nation - Pony (Modek Remix)

After the success of the Slam + Gary Beck (Alliances 1) release, Slam welcome friends and peers Pan-Pot to the next phase of their 'Alliances' series. Slam & Pan-Pot have shared the stage at many an occasion whether it be at Slam's Pressure or Return To Mono nights at The Arches & Sub Club respectively, or at the Mobilee Rooftop or Poolside parties, Off-Sonar. Pan-Pot have also remixed Slam's 'Room 2' & 'Lifetimes' tracks while Slam have reworked Pan-Pot's 'Face To Face' & 'Confronted' tracks. Their sounds are well matched, as are their personalities. 'Media' brings the drive, swing and melody that both pairs of producers do so well. Twisting and turning through delayed FX and doubling drums, 'Media' swells until it hits an epic bass sequence at the tracks half-way mark before dropping back to a stripped groove. When the two acts combine they are most certainly a formidable force. 'Media' is the perfect example of this.
