Move along now, plenty to see here. Some say MUALLEM got Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker into the remix lab but that’s simply not true. Much better to give the job to NYC undergound disco grandmaster NICK CHACONA. „Shanti Dance“ never sounded more inflammable. Sonic gasoline on the dancefloor.
MUALLEM’s edit then morphes back into the original super funky album cut. A slice of ultra-rare 70s space disco from THE DROIDS reworked in London, New York and Munich. It used to be Lieutenant Uhura’s favourite boogie tune, you know.
And it just gets better! THE LIGHT COMMAND (NYC’s ROY DANK) put a fine layer of ice on the vinyl tracks: His version skids skids around with added attituted and plenty of strings attached. Kinda moody, pushy, Detroit. „Super“, as they call it in Bavaria.
