Description
Version Galore is a newly found label, deeply rooted in the music culture. The label brings you selected reworks / versions from the top producers in the game, showing lots of respect and care for the original, but elevating it’s spirit and taking it somewhere else. It’s all about the dialogue of cultures and the idealistic desire to pass the music legacy on! No half-measures, played-out tunes, lazy cuts, or boring “808-kick boosting” biz!
K2 is an alias of someone who you should be very familiar with by now, especially if your interests lie in quality house music. No clues? He the music legend from Baltimore, one of the most versatile and technically-gifted DJs on the scene, a master of CDJs, who singlehandedly restored public’s interest in gospel music with his ultimate dance bomb “Work It Out”. Still Hesitant? Ok we’ll help you – it’s the one and only Karizma!
A-side is a pure fire-starter! One of those tunes that works perfectly in any surrounding, location, context, club. Here Karizma flips a version of a certain African-American work song, which catchy refrain just seem to resonate with anyone, while the rough dirty beats with the cheeky start/pause technique destroy the dance floor! Essential party tool!
On B-Side the maestro travels in time to grace us with a retro-futuristic workout on the edge of jazz-fusion / prog-rock & Italo-disco. “In Spite Of” is a peculiar, yet beautiful combination of hypnotic chord progressions, step-sequenced synthetic bass-lines, the virtuoso dialogue of electric guitar and electric violin (yes), spiced up with African percussion and forceful beats, all working together in harmony in accordance with the intricate time signature of the song! The label say that’s Karizma at his most Balearic! Make of that what you will but be warned this is one of those sneaky little sound snakes that creep into your subconsciousness and won’t leave for days. A surefire grower.
