GusGus* - VIP

A nice soulful jazzy number from GusGus, these remixes offer something for the dancefloor and also for those that just want to chill out at home. Remixes coming from Masters At Work which actually complement the jazzy original rather well with jazzy guitars and a real quality MAW feel. The other remixes are deeper which makes a refreshing change to the MAW version, my pick of the deeper remixes come from Francois Kevorkian. Fire Island and Ron Trent remixes are also pretty cool too, although not the best Fire Island mix out there.

Using one of the best songs from the album This Is Normal, this maxi-single is well worth every cent. The remixers are famous and the remixes? Top-notch. Francois K and Heller & Farley each give the tune a straight-up house workover, destined for the clubs. Q-Burns runs a new bassline thru filtered vocals, funking it up speed garage style. Dune does drum 'n bass proud by mixing beats with vocals, punctuated with the trademark flute flutters from the original VIP. The real VIPs here are probably Masters At Work with their groovy and downtempo remix, so sexy and jazzy it can be dropped on clubs, bars, homes, runways, anywhere. Ladies and Gentlemen, if only every bloody Maxi-single sounded as good as this one!
