TRACK LISTING A1. Trans Afro Express (Gerd Janson 'Dance' Mix) A2. Trans Afro Express (Gerd Janson 'Dance' Instrumental Mix) B1. Trans Afro Express (Ricardo Villalobos '242 Free' Remix) SALES NOTES Following Sydenham, Njai and Punchardâ„¢s fresh take on Kraftwerkâ„¢s classic earlier this year, which picked up support from the likes of Optimo, India Jordan, DJ Bone, and more, Radio Slave recruits a pair of all-star remixers in Ricardo Villalobos and Gerd Janson to deliver a scintillating set of interpretations for his Rekids imprint. Running Backâ„¢s Gerd Janson injects slap bass, funk-laden guitars, and twinkling synths over the originalâ„¢s vocals for the ËœDanceâ„¢ mix, followed by a stripped-back instrumental version to kick off the A side. On the flip, Villalobos delivers a typically trippy affair, bringing constantly evolving strokes of modular mayhem and zapping percussion for over ten minutes, nervously settling into a chugging and deeply satisfying halftime groove.
