"Techno has always had a soft spot for old electronica, and it was only a matter of time before Gary Numan made his way into the remix pile. And what a good idea that turned out to be" - Time Out

2.1 Robert Armani - Metal

Long time Chicago DJ and producer, Robert Armani is known throughout the world for his uncompromising, abrasive and unique Jack sound through releases on ACV and Dance Mania. With 'Metal' he gets to stomp his jax style, squelching the original's melody through a crumbling, industrial warehouse.

"Cool, weird and very fine" - Time Out

"Robert Armani's mix of metal can do no wrong. Armani's signature drum programming, heavy and hard, combines with a stepping riff that is literally a beast." - Splash

"Much harder than most Armani stuff - very cool percussive builder" - Eamonn Dog (megadog)

2.2 D.J.Hell - Dans Le Parc (Down in the Park)

Munich based Disko B producer and international Gigolo head honcho, DJ Hell drags 'Dans Le Parc' through the infernal hot coals of Beelzebub's boudoir for a downtempo roasting of twisted drum programming and atmospheric synths. Brrrrr.

"Godfather of the bottle-bleach-jumpsuit-future-sounds gets a chunky Germanic techno boost by the aptly named DJ Hell" - NME

"Mutalated into a stripped, electro inspired track which drones gracefully over whispery reminders of the original. Excellent!" - Splash

"I love the DJ Hell track; sounds like a dark soundtrack" 9/10 - Laurent Garnier

"Hells mix is a classic" - Regis

** Awarded No.4 Techno single of 1997 ** - DJ Magazine

2.3 Greenhaus - I Die: You Die

Frankie D's long running underground techno club, Eurobeat 2000, has been resident to many sweaty night's techno entertainment and housed pretty much all of the world's top techno DJ's. With partner Steve Bellamy he recreates that party atmosphere with Greenhaus' crunching beat and acid swirl version of I Die, You Die.

"The Greenhaus mix is just excellent! It's got a great hook.

Really banging! 10/10!!" - Mike Mechanic

"A kind of acid-trance-meets-Underworld affair" - Magic Feet

2.4 Mike Dearborn - Cars

Windy city resident and Majesty Records top banana, Mike Dearborn takes Cars for a spin through a Chicago carwash and then promptly nicks the hub caps and reverses it through a demolition derby.

"Mike Dearborn is the one for me.His mix of 'Cars' sees a his hard jacking Chicago sound bump and grind over a steely techno 'in cars' sample" - Chris Liberator, Update

"Mike Dearborn's mix is a funking bomb! 9/10 - Laurent Garnier

"Just brilliant, I love that" - Claude Young

2.5 Dave Clarke - Cars

Normally chomping a fresh Havana and speeding down the freeway at mach 3, Dave 'Clarkster' Clarke takes Cars on a faithful Sunday stroll, throwing a couple of bassline handbrake turns in for good measure.

"Dave burns rubber" - Fused magazine

Remix of the Month - Q Magazine

"The best track of this fetchingly bizarre tribute...meaty electro trundle through Cars" - Vox

2.6 Dave Angel - Warriors

Rotation Records boss and globetrottin' DJ Dave Angel brings his own tech-funk sound into the deep nocturnal grooves of Warriors.

"The Dave Angel mix is fabulous! Really beautiful" - Blu Peter

"D. Angel rules" - Ian Pooley

"Grabs you by the mirrorballs and swirls you around a tech-funk Warriors dancefloor" - MuziK

2.7 Liberator DJ's - Are 'Friends' Electric?

Cluster and Stay Up Forever party activists The Liberator DJ's provide some sonic shock treatment by firing up the acid techno convertor and blasting the No.1 tune Are 'Friends' Electric?

"Good and pumping" - Daz Saund

"Wicked - good driving beats - good choice for a remix" - Mr. Mule

"Rocked 'The Passion club' on Saturday night making it a peak time floorfilling monster that works like a mule" - Wayne Chester

"Gaz in 303 bath" - DJ magazine

2.8 Steve Stoll - Remember I Was Vapour

New York's Proper label honcho Steve Stoll delivers a funky minimal version of Remember I Was Vapour.

"It's good!" - Justin Robertson

"It's very good!" - Lex

"Kraftwerk-esque remake" - DJ magazine

2.9 Claude Young - We Are Glass

Detroit's Claude Young has garnered a reputation as one of the world's most awe inspiring techno DJs. His production credits read like a who's who with releases on Hardwax, Elypsia, Utensil, Frictional and Surface (to name just a few). Here he brings his distinctive techno funk with blister bomb percussion and abstract subtleties to the track.

2.10 Alex Hazzard - Films

A pounding rendition that drops into a swinging vocal-echo break from DJ / Producer Alex Hazzard, a long time mainstay of the UK techno scene. Recording for Redweed and producing for Basement, Sound Eternity, Perpetual and Jumpin' & Pumpin', Alex's reputation is set to grow with releases in '98 as Haztech and guest DJ spots across Europe.

2.11 Peter Lazonby - The Iceman Comes

The multi-talented Mr. Lazonby is currently incommunicado in New Orleans, doubtless expanding his musical knowledge! He rounds off the series by taking 'The Iceman Comes' into a parallel plane of rhythmic electronica. And what a way to finish!
