len faki: fusion remixes 03/03

This third and final installment of the Fusion remix series sees Len Faki personally select from his most beloved producers to expand on his ambitious album project Fusion that was released as a double LP in 2023. First up is Herbert's trippy rework of "Don't Be Stupid Day," one of the album's most memorable vocal cuts. Herbert's "Brain Dub" transforms the track slowly and playfully, using the witty lyrics for crafting catchy hooks. Irish powerhouse Cromby has two appearances on this EP, getting to revamp the more house-leaning productions from Fusion. His take on "It's Time (to Move Your Body)" is grooving grand, its bubbling acid riff and dancing hi hats teeming with life. Meanwhile, the "Blackjack" remix further energizes the original's shiny centerstage synths, crazily riding the pitch up and down for an all-out party. Finally, the brotherly duo Glaskin are reshaping the ambient album highlight "Gamma" into a highly effective, reduced but propulsive, tunneling techno affair.
