Bleep - In Your System

Bleep's production partner Joker (aka Syamese/Mental Overdrive) remixed this tune for the B-side and did exactly what I wanted a remixer to do after hearing the A-side. I remember when I first listened to it: The vocal sample by Lilith (aka Anneli Drecker) consists of two parts, the first one with a descending melody, the second one with an ascending melody. During the split-second after the first part I was completely amazed, and then the second part came and didn't really ruin it, but still turned everything a bit sour to me. I turned the record over, and what a delight: the Joker Mix leaves away the second part of the vocal and the first part really comes to shine.
Generally, the Joker Mix uses the (too) many vocal samples of the original more restrictively, though the slightly annoying "I am telling you: They are wrong" is still there. Joker also uses lighter, funkier, electro-styled beats which suit the tune better than the new beat bassdrum of the original mix. I suppose In Your System, as the follow-up 12inch A Byte Of AMC, were made for the new beat-hungry Belgian crowd, though others could do that job much better. However, Bleep's The Northpole By Submarine LP is recommended: The album tracks are much superior to the singles. An exception must be made for Cycle 92, which was recorded in Norway, saw a release on Bleep's first 12inch for SSR and is probably his most astonishing early work.
