Nick Holder continues an excellent run in 2008 with this remix package of his single “Time”, a cut already championed by Gilles Peterson. Featuring Sacha on vocals, this deep vocal house cut gets the remix treatment from two Europeans, namely Wahoo (AKA Dixon & Georg Levin) and Manuel Tur.
Wahoo weigh in with a solid vocal remix and more stripped down Dub Mix; a sophisticated production from Dixon & Georg Levin that will appeal to deep house/tech and jazzier heads alike. Wahoo have notched up some excellent productions on Sonar Kollectiv, Defected and Fine as well as remixing for Ben Westbeech and Jazzanova. Dixon also co-runs the highly respected Innervisions label.
Another German producer turns out two alternate mixes; Manuel Tur is building a great profile right now with releases on Freerange, Agave and Smokestack. Tur’s Dub Mix is an ultra deep excursion, with delayed vocals, heavy stabs and thick swirling chords, coming across like Dave Clarke’s “Red 1” on minus 8!. One for the early mornings! A Vocal Mix is also included here with melancholic horns and pianos making there way into the production.
