Mikel Curcio – Don't Stop

Mikel Curcio Don't Stop Mile EndFour quite different mixes grace this latest offering from Canada's Mile End Records.

In its Original form, Don't Stop is a hi-octane, hi-impact tech-houser, with techno-style, busy busy busy percussion, snatches of spoken female vocal and a big 90s-ish synth/bass riff, while the Dub Mix drops the vocal and lets that riff shine through. The Ezlv Remix drops the constantly-rattling cymbals and takes us into dreamy, proggy territory, and then finally the NOTV Remix is a dark and ominous deep house groove in the contemporary style, with – dare I suggest? – echoes of classic jungle in the bass sounds.

A strong package all round, but NOTV's rub takes the gold for me.

Out: This week
