referencing Twist, 12", Promo, P12 MUTE 311

Jacques Lu Cont is a pretty good remixer,and this record prooves it. Generally its commercial electronic dance music (here it's Goldfrapp) but he usually does a good job. With the Conversion Perversion Mix of Goldfrapp's Twist he literally makes you dance,the vibe just carries you on the dancefloor. The track starts with a sample that keeps evolving and evolving,and then BOOM - he kicks it with a strong,phat beatline. The vocal fits in perfectly,like a cherry on top. Instead of Conversion Perversion Dub,the second track should be called "instrumental" because its the same track just without vocals, no extra adjustments were made. The third track called Yes Sir has a broken beat, and in my opinion, comparing to the other two its made for listening, not the dancefloor because unlike to Twist it sounds too ordinary. This record might not be your cup of tea but it's worth buying, you might need it if you wanna wake up your audience.

I'm still playing the Lu Cont mix of this track out. It just doesn't get old. I just love the way the track begins, it's like a monster emerging from a cave. And that is exactly what this is, a monster. The two choruses are just so jaw droppingly powerful, you have to hear it to understand. If for some strange reason you haven't heard this, check it out now.
