Kai Campos, representing the Mount Kimbie duo, has unveiled the bisected MK 3.5 album with “City Planning (Deluxe).” This exclusive release takes listeners on a unique techno-infused train journey, offering a variety of innovative remixes that reinterpret the original theme.
Leading the charge, Ploy’s remix of ‘Zone 3 (City Limits)’ ignites nocturnal underground club rhythms, blending mechanical sounds with surging electric currents to create aural waves. Meanwhile, Octo Octa’s extended take on ‘Dream On And On Suite’ crafts a scene of house euphoria, complete with shuffling train cars and fleeting lights.
Further adding to the album’s complexity, Client_03 and DJ Stingray, an associate of Drexciyan, deliver guttural reimaginations of ‘Quartz.’ The former bathes the listener in synths, unleashing an unending storm of acid-soaked rhythms, while the latter’s approach crushes through with hard-hitting industrial percussion.
Expertly guiding the nocturnal melodies of ‘Zone 3,’ Beatrice Dillon displays her connection to esteemed labels like PAN, Trilogy Tapes, and Poly Kicks. Forest Drive West, renowned for collaborations with Livity Sound, Ilian Tape, and Delsin, captures the essence of ‘Quartz’ through frantic percussive mastery. Robert Hood, a respected figure with releases on M-Plant, Tresor, and Dekmantel, revisits ‘Zone 3 City Limits,’ molding it into a classic techno roller that demands attention.
“City Planning (Deluxe)” is an exquisite journey that stops at some of the planet’s most iconic studios. It showcases a seamless exploration of electronic music’s diverse tangents, all achieved with impeccable execution. This deluxe edition represents not just a collection of remixes but an odyssey that pushes the boundaries of electronic productions, encapsulating a world where beats, melodies, and rhythms converge in a faultless symphony.
