With 15 years of releases under their belt, Dessous Recordings present another Classics project. Longtime collaborator and label family member Phonique revisits his seminal 'For the Time Being‘ featuring Erlend Øye, pulling together all the remixes into one handy package.
Alongside the original cut from 2004‘s 'Identification' long player, this release also features eight other remixes covering the house spectrum.
Three new mixes for 2013 provide fresh takes on the track. Phonique's own 10 Years After Remix layers up the emotive synths into an evolving 8-minute epic while Bruno Be sets the control for outer space with his deep rework. Englander Burnski also delivers a club-ready bomb focusing firmly on the groove.
Each sits perfectly alongside some of the hottest reworks from the label's past, including Alexkid's classy Cold Mix, Ripperton's deep and techy mix from 2009 joins Motorcitysoul's 2005 acidic workout – all making full use of Øye's haunting vocals.
Neil Quigley's tough yet emotional tech-house perspective further underlines the versatility of Phonique's original material, while Funkagenda vs Trophy Twins' remake is aimed firmly at the main room floor.
Beatport customers will also receive an exclusive new remix from Wehbba & Accioly – two rising stars of the Brazilian deep house scene.
