About this item

Cheap Classics open up their tenure with this rather classy revisitation of the incredibly sexy, deep house jam, "Clare". Produced by iO and released on Mo Wax in 1995 it contains elements of "Cala Boca Menino" by João Donato and is a real red lit, smoldering example of a backroom burner. Think Kelvin Brown at Electric Chair circa 2002.

iO add some fresh remixes into the equation with Patrick Pulsinger joined by Sam Irl on the first one, dubbing things out inna nice style. Patrick rides solo on remix two, going on a gurgling tribal acid tip, very nice.

Then it's the turn of Erdem Tunakan who ups the anti with voluptuous pads, cushiony synths and a progressive thrust which really gives the track some welly.

Seriously strong 12". Don't sleep! 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: This one came out of nowhere and had me hooked! Hard to pick a favourite between the OG and the new remixes - all have that late night thrust nailed to a T.
