Review: Felix Laband - We Know Major Tom`s A Junkie (Frivolous Remix) / 5 Seconds Ago (Coldcut Just Say No Remix) (Compost Records)

So we know how good Felix Laband's album is that came out at the end of last year on Compost Records; 'The Soft White Hand' (see review HERE) and I speculated then that the remixed versions were likely to be very special; but I didn't expect Coldcut (yes, the Ninja Tune founders founders Matt Black and Jonathan More) have excelled themsleves.

Not to be outdone, Berlin based Canadian 

Daniel Gardner (aka Frivolous) has warped the already odd Bowie 'tribute track', 'We Know Major Tom`s A Junkie' into a rolling electronic OST/theme dancer; if there was going to be a remake of 'Funeral In Berlin', this one would meet the MI5 brief.

More are promised from the likes of Acid Pauli, DMX Krew and Shahrokh Dini on a "full release" on 28th April.
