Corsica’s own Valerj joins Slow Motion’s ‘A UFO’ free edit series with a cerebral rework of Oppenheimer Analysis’s “Subterranean Desire.” Built for the haze of the early hours, Valerj amplifies the spirit of the minimal wave pioneers, delving deeper into the enigmatic allure of the 1980s original. His signature percussion drives and swaggering synths pulse. Rising to a euphoric payoff, Valerj tastefully hones the tension and elevates the lyrical excellence. Showcasing his production mastery, Valerj transforms “Subterranean Desire” into a versatile, cinematic cut, equally set for a twilight drive or igniting a club floor. Vocoders sizzle, and the original’s elements are tastefully relit. Valerj not only honours the essence of the classic but propels it into the present, ensuring its legacy endures on dancefloors and in hearts alike.

Slow Motion’s own Franz Scala adds to his impressive collection of edits with a vibrant rework of XS5’s “I Need More.” His signature robust percussion ties everything together, with chest hitting snares and expansive atmospherics. Scala’s gift for immersing listeners in the energy of the dancefloor is on full display, skillfully building anticipation for key elements of the original track while allowing the vocal hooks to resonate. Scala lowers the tempo and maintains a fierce low end, creating room for dynamics to flourish. This Portuguese 1988 gem receives his revered and respectful treatment, making it a noteworthy addition to his mighty catalogue.

Rahaan – SE 011 [SE011]

Rahaan is a US edit master who can turn his hand to disco, house, soul, funk and r&b all with equal elan. He’s been doing it for 20 years but it’s still exciting to hear a new one from the legend, and the 11th Street Edits outing is another beguiling one. ‘Impure’ is a ragged and rugged, low-slung deep house drum track with cat squeals and crashing hits striking a menacing tone. ‘Answer The Damn Phone’ is a surging cosmic disco sound with driving arps and incongruous vocals before closer ‘Intense’ brings more raw, physical rhythms to a driving deep house cut.
