Barcelona’s Baldo revisits the gorgeously colorful ‘Dream Of You’ from Istanbul’s rising talent Zeynep Erbay, taking it on one hell of a trip. Rocking a classic breakbeat under his tight house foundations, he gives his remix a rolling feel that’s counteracted by the insistence of the three-note bassline which morphs into acidic resonance as the track evolves. Snatches of the beautiful lead synth and the dreamy vocal sample provide the lightness of touch against this more rugged element, and the kicks switch to a breakbeat rhythm to add extra tension in the midway section alongside the fizzing electric piano-esque chords from the original. When the lead riff drops back in with more urgent techno rides driving it harder, it’s a truly joyous release. Round off with an extended acid workout and you have yourself one mighty fine remix to compliment the cute charms of the original. Baldo has signed music to Gerd Janson’s Running Back, Catz-N-Dogz Step Recordings, Permanent Vacation and E-Beamz amongst others, meaning his arrival on Exploited comes with serious pedigree.
