The third part in the series features remixes by Tale Of Us and Paul van Dyk, some of the most prolific electronic producers and DJs. First up are Tale Of Us, one of the biggest names on the dance circuit of the moment. Their ‘Renaissance Remix’ was first released in 2018 and has already become one of the most popular remixes of Café Del Mar.
DJ Kid Paul and Paul van Dyk were close DJ buddies in the early Berlin Techno scene, and played around a hundred DJ gigs together, all around Germany and Europe, before they moved on in different directions. Now nearly 30 years later Paul van Dyk finally got the chance to remix the iconic Café del Mar. His XOXO remix slows the tempo slightly and employs crisp percussion and deep, pulsing bass while still maintaining the out-and-out exhilaration of that epic breakdown. Originally released in 2021, the Paul van Dyk remix appears here on vinyl for the first time.
STAFF COMMENTS
Matt says: The "Café Del Mar" reissue campaign continues... not much more to say about this bona fide Ibiza anthem. I always did like the Paul Van Dyk mix of it, featured here. Never heard that Tale Of Us version either, which is decidedly more blurred and trippy than the jugular penetrating PVD version. Nice series celebrating this era-defining record.TRACK LISTING
