It’s refreshing to know that the guy that remixed Chaka Khan and Prince to such great effect back in day is still around.

Scouring through the blogs once again on this mix. It’s summer so leaning more in the direction of trance and blissed out beats, setting the scene with an airy reworking of a Florence and the Machine track before traversing a path towards Agoria’s strung out Grande Torino. Tom Stephan beefs things up a little (twiddling [...]
