Paul Sawyer (Krafted, Perfecto) recently celebrated 30 years as a DJ, a monumental achievement in our industry, so congratulations Paul! For ‘Gold’ he teams up with New Zealander Carla Werner, whose most notable releases include the seminal ‘Southern Sun’ (with Paul Oakenfold) and her wonderful album ‘Departure’ [Colombia]. This remix release on Pure Progressive features two wicked versions of ‘Gold’.
Firstly Nick Muir (Bedrock) delivers a mighty 124bpm groover that almost entirely disposes of the vocal, opting instead for an earthy, sumptuous production which hints at Slam’s ‘Positive Education’ in places. London / Madrid nomad LORRAINNE (Radikon, Krafted) remixes ‘Gold’ into a healthy slice of 124bpm deep melodic techno, celebrating the gorgeous vocal & adding lush pads, augmented piano notes & some neat trance elements.
