Bob Sinclar - I Feel For You

The opening single of "Champs Élysées", second album of Bob Sinclar, was still very grounded in the 'French Touch' parameters. A collaboration with Disco artist Cerrone on a previous compilation of remixes was the basic starting point of "I Feel For You". In the video of the track, Sinclar is still the 'man of mystery', looking for new talents for his next project: singers, dancers and personnificators form a procession in front of his office to get the chance of their life. Finally, a young vocalist is chosen, as well as many flamboyant dancers.
This release contains all the official mixes of the song. The Erick Morillo re-edit is very similar to the original and is modeled upon mixing standards. The remixes of CZR are faster, filtered and mainly based on a small part of Cerrone's sample. Spiller delivers 2 respectable versions, although I have heard better of him. Astrotrax reconstructs the whole track, removing the sample and replacing it with real instruments.
The differences between the tracks found on 'Paradise' and 'I Feel For You' are numerous. The production on this single is 'cleaner', and mainstream oriented. Not necessary a good thing if you liked the 'rough' aspect of 'Disco 2000 Selector', 'Ultimate Funk' or 'New York City Music' for example.
'I Feel For You' was the first single of Bob Sinclar to be released officially in North America. 'Darlin' and 'Freedom' followed while 'Ich Rocke' and 'Save Our Soul' were released in Europe.
