about

One highly praised full-length later, MICHAEL MAYER’s release schedule is still crammed with premium content. His sophomore album MANTASY (KOMCD100/KOM250) already saw two successful remix EP’s sporting some of Michael’s favorite artists, a series that now finds a fitting last chapter with MANTASY REMIXE 3. Four exciting reworks take you up close and personal with top players from Kompakt’s inner circle, including JÜRGEN PAAPE, JÖRG BURGER (aka The Modernist), MATIAS AGUAYO and TERRANOVA.

JÜRGEN PAAPE starts the roundelay with an elegantly coasting take on the album’s title track MANTASY. Where the original openly acknowledges its roots in muscular Italo Disco, this revamp caters more to the fluffy glamour of mid-nineties house, styling itself as effervescent as necessary and as nonchalant as possible. MATIAS AGUAYO gives a performance as everybody’s favorite late-night crooner on his remix of idiosyncratic groover LAMUSETWA, laying down some kind of mutant lounge sound, or “Bossa Novocaina” as we like to call it. Don’t miss out on the cool easter egg hidden in the lyrics… Remember 1997’s “Frost”, one of Michael’s earliest releases? Well, now you do. In the meantime, TERRANOVA brings the bounce back to gloomy ravisher ROSES, unsurprisingly ramping up the pressure with a shadowy banger sure to muster a keen crowd. Clearly a prime time choice, this one will see some hefty airplay when DJs find themselves in need of an exclamation mark. Last, but not least, you’ll hear JÖRG BURGER aka The Modernist capping off a splendid remix package with a sun-drenched version of the inspiring BAUMHAUS, the only track featured in all three MANTASY REMIXE EPs.. a tremendously fitting closer for the adventure that was MANTASY. But don’t be sad: there’s always a house in the tree for you and me.
