Soft Cell - Torch (StellaVista´s Lonely Italo Brutalo Remix)
I was playing with the acapella of Soft Cell´s classic 80´s anthem Torch and tried to set it to some fresh synthwave/cosmic disco. The basic track here is the beautiful "I Feel Lonely" from Italo Brutalo´s fantastic 2022 album Heartware (Highly recommended!!!). The glistening, bubbling soundscape features an apt vocal sample about loneliness during space travel (Charlton Heston in the original Planet Of The Apes). This transforms Marcs song about a lonely man losing himself in the words of a torchsinger into an eerie, weightless, futuristic epic. It´s either this or I WAS PROBABLY DRUNK AND HAD NO MAKE-UP ON!

Kraftwerk - Autobahn (Speed Bump Remix)
Since there is (still) mostly no speed limit on the German Autobahn, I decided to put the pedal to the metal and turn Kraftwerk´s classic hymn to grey motorways into a funky disco juggernaut. I set the cruise control to 101 bpm and injected the teutonic motorik groove with the brilliant track Freeze Frame by Yse Saint Laur'ant. The breaks and grooves of both tracks fit together like cogs in a well oiled machine. Hit the road, Flo!
