INFO
It was only a matter of time. Two genre-defi ning artists together...pop music and dance music's most famous arbiters of tast e, collaborating at last. DJ Hell's "U Can Dance" is an interpretation of an unr eleased Bryan Ferry song, but it's one that reflects a perfect melding of two di stinct personalities, a record that sounds as if the voice and music were made f or each other.
Hell, of course, has been riding high on the success o f Teufelswerk, his masterpiece of a double album, a journey replete with fruitfu l experiments and club bombs. One that has yielded both massive hits and not a t iny bit of controversy along the way. Ferry, meanwhile, has been as busy as ever —recording a new album, performing in places as far afield as Siberia, ope ning up the Cannes Film Festival...basically just being Bryan Ferry.
And now here they are together...It all started in 2006 when Hell dropped in to meet Ferry at his West London studio. At first they discussed Hell remixing an o ld Roxy Music track, and then it turned into something else - something new (U C an Dance).
They had similar impressions of one another—Hell: "I was impressed by his aura and his look," Ferry: "He impressed us with his sophi stication and charm." Fast forward a few years later, and Hell is hard at work o n Teufelswerk and putting the finishing touches on the aforementioned song title d "U Can Dance," a serpentine Moroder-esque disco burner. With the help of old f riend Peter Kruder, of Kruder and Dorfmeister fame, Hell fashioned the song into a smoldering nine-minute highlight of the double disc set, in which Ferry turns in a typically assured vocal performance.
Ferry may seem like an un expected fan of dance, but he's been going to clubs since he was a teenager, and in his lengthy career he's worked with legends such as Nile Rodgers of Chic and David Williams from Michael Jackson's band. "It's always a pleasure to work wit h people from that genre, who follow a singular groove."
The single f ollows in the wake of Hell's "The DJ feat. P. Diddy" which has won over floors a nd critics alike with its nearly 30-minute Radio Slave remix and fine work from the likes of Deetron, Jay Haze and others. On "U Can Dance" Hell and Ferry have similarly pulled out all the stops for the remixes, gathering up work from the G rammy-nominated producer Carl Craig, DFA mainstay Tim Goldsworthy and pop electr o superstars Simian Mobile Disco.
