"Destination Remixes"
A1: Destination (DerDieDas Remix)
A2: Destination (Banggang12s Happy Acid Reshuffle)
B1: Destination (Jaunt Remix)
B2: Destination (Munk Remix)
After the release of Damn Arms' two part not-quite-smash-hit-but-should-have-been-"Destination" release early this year, BangGang 12s has roped in a bunch of their favourite artists for remix duties to set the good ship Destination a sail once more. And wow did we get a lot of remixes. Woah. One million and counting.
DerDieDas... The two men with the most German sounding name in dance produced the least sounding German remix possible, turning out a super feel-good melodious synth-heavy retake; Jaunt reworked it into a French-House-Slash-Dark-Trance-affair (is that a new genre?); BangGang (that's us!) don't stray too far from original, injecting a tad more acidy balls into it; and Munk lend their signature Gomma-fied blissed out Summer disco vibes to it. Then Cassian (latest stupidly young musical man on BG12s) makes that shit FUNK-Y (yes I did just use the word funky). Mitzi (winner of Spank Records/BangGang12s Destination remix compeition) offer up a slow chugging percussive kinda disco version; Ted & Francis keep things all 80s soundtrack, and Riggarutz turns it into a piece of beautiful eleontronica so nice you feel like crying.
Told you there are LOTS of remixes on this one. Phew.
