If you like your house to bring back sounds of the past, then meet the elusive The Magician, a suit-clad Belgian producer whose numerous Magic Tape mixes gained him recognition over the last year. A house darling at heart, he remixes tracks with shiny panache as he emphasizes basslines below nostalgic melodies. The results are club-ready classics that will keep your body bouncing for hours.
Here, The Magician takes Blonde's latest single "All Cried Out" to a magnificent new level. In his signature fashion, he keeps the original vocals, but tones down the piano to make room for a mesmerizing lower register. Imagine a disco ball twirling above you in a dark room while a grand piano plays somewhere far in the distance. As I said previously, the man knows panache.
Click here to hear the original track, featuring Alex Newell. Blonde officially releases the single on April 26th.
Catch The Magician at Ultra on March 29th. "Magic Tape 50 (Birthday Edition)", his latest mix, is streaming below. He is on Soundcloud and Facebook.
