On
4th October 2004, the Impossible Beings classic ‘Too Late’ will
be released as part of End Recordings’ limited edition back catalogue
remix series End Rec Collect. Featuring the original backed by two
darkly impressive remixes from Mantis Recordings’ Brooks; this
is an essential release for all fans of the original Balearic track
plus all those partial to crunching metal machine funk.
When ‘Too Late’ was originally released in 2001 it became
one of the most in demand releases ever on End Recordings. Hailed
as a quality nu-house summertime jam, it was taken to the hearts
of DJs including Miguel Migs, Mr Scruff, Ben Watt, Lottie, Charles
Webster, Rob Mello, Ashley Beedle, Layo & Bushwacka, David Duriez
and Funk D’Void. It’s easy to see why – with its
melodic loop, shimmering echoic vocal and dreamy synths, this gorgeous
track evokes an endless summer, and will remain a staple of any self
respecting DJ’s box for some time to come.
With the limited
edition remixes on ENDCOL2, listeners get the best of both worlds,
as in Brooks’ capable hands the track moves
from day to night on the flipside. His Missed It Vocal Mix takes
the original, strips it down and dresses it up in robo-kit. Accentuating
a lo-fi Chicago house edge, Brooks teases out the beats, also playing
with arcade game effects, phone bleeps and a driving bass line. Meanwhile
the instrumental tightens the musical nuts and bolts taking the track
further into a Pac Man funk zone.
‘Tool Late’ (Brooks’ Remixes) shows just why the
production artists, as well as the track, are such firm favourites
with The End. Impossible Beings are the End Recordings signing whose
talent and breadth of musical vision make them a key part of the
label. Similarly, those familiar with Brooks’ work will have
found plenty to impress in his 2002 album You, Me and Us, his seminal
hip house mix of the Clyde track ‘Serve It Up, and his latest
album Red Tape (Mantis). This boy is going places and so is this
release: do not miss this highly collectable remix package out now
on End Recordings.
