REVIEW BY zoci (18/12/2004) Man, THAT'S a remix, a really mainstream song! After lagerfeldts cool R-Type and Dutch Breeze/Robocop remixes his latest called Angel is now my favorite remix. It could be played in every club/disco and would be - without a doubt - a top ten hit in the real charts (here in germany, my opinion)! It's incredible what the unique lagerfeldt created out of the inconspicuous but impressing melody of the 1993-song from Danko/Decoder. With loads of creativity he produced a powerful, happy and VERY danceable partytrack in the style of the german top ten acts Dune or Mark Oh.After a mellow beginning (lullaby-style with breakbeats and female voice) it turns to an explosion of filtered and voluminous synthsounds and a stomping beat, that your feet can't stop tapping. A drumkitbridge (Safri Duo-like) in the middlepart moves over to the final refrain-lap and leads out with a few seconds of the original sid. Ok, the main melody is repeating through the whole song, but it's going over to the listeners blood (like eric prydz' call on me)! If you don't like it the first time listening, give it a try, loop the song and hear it twice or more times in one piece. Maybe the Angel-virus will get u too (hey, do you already whistle the melody?)!?! The overall impression ist superb, technically and artistic perfect, just a grey one for the nostalgic impression, but that would be hard to realize, if you heard the original song, that turns part away from the main start - so no full score. One word: I'm just a newbie in here, this is my first review, but i think we've to put lagerfeldt on a higher socket soon. What he did and does for our (still) more or less small scene compared to others ist outstanding! Supporting sites, doing remixes and reviews at the remix64 and the Lemon-sites. My biggest repects for a guy who is a professional musicproducer (dozens of gold and platin records) but still having much fun going back to his roots... Holger, keep up your exemplary and great work, we can't await your next remix! You should contact Danko/Decoder to release a single of Angel! SIR Holger Lagerfeldt - even outstanding! |

REVIEW BY Instant Remedy (08/12/2004) Ok, this IS my cup of tea. Eurodance/trance will always be good when Lagerfeldt is producing. Great sounding female vocals, a perfect fit. Not too sure about the "bassdrum action" though, but it serves a purpose, the break is cool.The tune have a very happy feel to it as it also states, but also enegetic and powerful - just the way I like it. Cool Safri Duo part too. Since I've never heard the original I have to put a green one on the Nostalgia. I really miss this kind of music on the radio and the clubs! I'm sick to death of RNB and hiphop. |
