Armand Van Heldens classic house hit has been given the updated remix treatment and it’s awesome. It’s been perfectly remixed by Starkillers and this thing rocks. Great electro breakdowns and and euphoric beats makes for an excellent track to get down to at the club or speed up in your car cruising the streets. Love it. Preview original 90s version and the 2010 remixed version by Starkillers below.
This song was such a big deal for me back in the mid 90s that I overplayed it. It was a big pop dance crossover hit from Italy. Later I also discovered a Rollo remix and started playing that version as well. So it has a special place for me as it was def one of the bigger dance pop tunes that came out in the 90s. I was quick to want to check out when I heard about a remake of it. Sure to my surprise it’s a pretty darn cool version by Matt Helders featuring Nesreen Shah. Matt Helders is the drummer from the Arctic Monkeys and I have not idea who Nesreen Shah is but they have certainly updated a club classic 90s dance pop song and made it quite the energetic drummified bouncy update. I like it. What do you think? The track is from Ministry Of Sounds Uncovered CD which is a real cool collection of covers remakes etc. Well worth it to own!
When Weapon Of Choice came out back in 2001 it was a pretty big hit. The track was a quirky retro sounding fun electronic masterpiece. I really dug it and the video was fun too and starred Christopher Walken of all things. So it was a classic piece of work. I’m really partial to the original version of Weapon Of Choice but this new remix by Lazy Rich is pretty fun. It’s got more of a club/electro sound. Stuff that’s really big nowadays. It still has elements of the original track but definitely is an update. Works for me in some ways but again I love the original just a bit more and as always the original video is so much fun. What do you think of the two versions? Which version do you like?
Don’t you just love remixes, remakes covers? Don’t you love it when a musician samples a famous recording and incorporate it into theirs? I love it … I absolutely love taking old recordings and making something completely new to with them. Who needs it to sound like everything else that’s blasting out of the radio [...]more →
