18 months on from Karol XVII & MB Valence's immersive deep house album ‘Essay’, Get Physical Music has curated a superb selection of remixes of it by accomplished underground talents, including Nick Curly, Ian Pooley, Andre Lodemann, Fur Coat, Jimpster, Death on the Balcony, Jori Hulkkonen, and many more.

Polish pair Karol XVII & MB Valence excelled on their last album, which featured great collaborations, deep-cut grooves and wistful melodies that still resonate today. Now their original material gets reworked by a mix of fresh house, prog and tech talents – some are friends of the label, and some of are releasing here for the first time.

Lost And Found label head Guy J brings his meticulous synth craft and rich melodies to a remix of 'Waterfall Drops' to kick off with, then Belgian Compuphonic flips 'Sonus & Bang Bang' into a delightfully delicate and candle-lit groove. Kasper Bjørke's Spaced Out Mix of 'Humanity' brings cosmic rays of melody and Finnish mainstay and label regular Jori Hulkkonen locks in hypnotic grooves under the spellbinding vocal of 'Bang Bang'. Further innovation comes from the likes of Death on the Balcony, Cream and Synkro while Freerange's main man Jimpster brings his sophisticated musical touch to 'Aqua' and Maxxi Soundsystem layers in tense synth leads to a dense percussive groove.

Pablo Bolivar then sinks into a dubby world of soft pads and dreamy melodies, and influential German artists Ian Pooley and Nick Curly offer their own crisp and tech-edged takes. There is widescreen and cinematic magic from Fur Coat and textbook dreamy depths to Andre Lodemann's remix, with Markus Homm, Lake People and Lusine closing out the selection with plenty of authentic house warmth.

This is a broad and brilliant collection that touches all corners of the dance effort in plenty of style.
