Review: Yarni - Anemoia - The Remixes EP (Stanhope Records)

Yani's 'Anemoia' get the remix that nobody was expecting but now we've got another seven tracks focused on the dancefloor - get ready to make your move(s)! 

You'll recall that we say to the original release last year, "If you put together the spirit of Galliano, Urban Species, Brand New Heavies, Roots Manuva, Ty, early Cinematic Orchestra and similar together, Yani's 'Anemoia' isn't too far from that: yes, it's that good!" So, is a remix going to top that?   If you're a multi-instrumentalist like Yarni there's a fair chance the you and your mates would give it a good go; especially if you aim to make them more dancefloor friendly.  

And the Yarni Jazz Dance Mix of 'Spell Over Me' is a winner to start with with that killer trumpet solo (James Atashroo) and Latin influences make it a must for this World Cup season.

And why wouldn't you go all D'n'B balearic dub with a remix from Sheffield based buck. on 'The Romantic Ghost' (the one featuring Plumm).  There's another remix the same track by Still (Argentina), that's picks up on the balearic dub potential with some Latin-house.

There's also two remixes of 'Sunrise Sunset' (featuring Scarlett Fae); one by Benedict (also Sheffield) for a full-on 8 minutes and Sharkkat (London) in the uptempo temple rave bath.

You'll remember our favorite track when the album came out last year was 'Neon God' and tell me I'm wrong (see review HERE) so what could  the much admired (by BBC 6 Music's Tom Ravenscroft, Nemone, Steve Lamacq), Echo Julliet so on the remix?  Well, she's snuck in a signal, electric light dub and percussion heavy post-jazzdance.  Brilliant!

There's no surprise that Benjamin Harris (aka Yarni) has returns to end the EP with another remix by him of 'Spell Over Me' moving from Jazz Dance to UK Garage which nicely manoevres around the vocal and that triumphant trumpet.

You'll have to wait to early October for the full EP but sign up now on the pre-order so you don't miss anything.
