GSXR 810 Remixes by Adam Beyer and Ken Ishii
Apotek Records serves up the "GSXR 810" Remixes featuring Techno icons Adam Beyer and Ken Ishii.
This track originally produced by Jerome Sydenham for his Nagano Kitchen project has now been subject to tremendous reworks by 2 legendary Techno icons. Adam Beyer's body of work needs no introduction. He applies his excellence to "GSXR 810" with searing Techno beats tweaked with an barrage of sound effects and topped off with a subtle futuristic rave complexity. The results are nothing less than groundbreaking. Ken Ishii, the overlord of the Japanese Techno scene, makes a rare appearance on a European label. On this journey he takes us into the bowels of deep Techno. Big kicks and deep melodic stabs also gives this remix a Tech-House appeal which rounds off a stunning 12 Inch and makes for a great overall package.
