Track Of Yesterday: Maurizio - Domina (Carl Craig's Mind Mix) (M)

 


One of those Carl Craig remixes that makes you regret he’s still not churning stuff this good out. I guess we all change. Different priorities, etc. This is amazing though. A little bit like his later remix of ‘Johnny L’. It has an eponymous, repetitive vocal allied with a bittersweet backing. An embryonic exploration into the possibilities of sound. A track where Detroit techno collides with IDM, (WHATEVER THAT IS), and an emotive dose feeling borne of an explorative sensibility is sprinkled on top.  I posted the other side of this a few years back. Something much more conventional, in spite of it being distilled straight from Maurizio’s creative juices and having featured on Eddie Richards’ ‘Essential Mix’ back in 1996. Something that the late Peter Pulford recorded for me. This is out on it’s own though. A more wistful piece of electronic music you will never hear, let alone one that can do it on the dance floor. Beautiful.
