Club Music has always been quite exciting, when artists or songs from other genres were newly interpreted using tools of electronic music.
In this case, Kosmo Records has felt free to put the vocals of the Nigerian singer Layori in the hands of selected producers. Originally, with "Iwa Lewa", an Afro jazz title sung in the Nigerian Yoruba, Layori was able to cast a trance-like spell during her live performance over her audience.
Our remixers have managed to take away that mantra-like power of the "Iwa Lewa" original into the world of electronic club music, without losing the original suction effect of the songs and Layori's voice.
While Lissat & Voltaxx has succeeded to make a warm house track for the main floor, Kosmo producer Ike X provides the perfect sundown - terraces mix with goose bumps break.
The main mix of this exciting remix-package seems to come from Portuguese DJ-Superstar Diego Miranda:
Call it Afro-House, call it Afro-lectric, it is indeed fantastic!!!
Dimitri Kechagias review: One of the most significant and influential record labels in the EDM history is of course Kosmo records counting numerous charts and club hits all over the world with artists such as Tomcraft, Tom Novy, and Lissat & Voltaxx to name just some stand out names. It's definitely a record label with wide open ears to find the new big thing in the music industry. Their A& R decision to transfer the superb performance of Layori with her brilliant track Iwa Lewa to the dancefloor its simply fantastic and the result can be the surprise hit for the summer of 2012. The remix package is the finest you can get and really perfect to play in your sets and add some rays of sunshine in your heart. First of all is Diego Miranda ethereal very sweet and calming remix that is deep tribal house with live like percussion and great drum work. The African chorus and Layori vocal sounds so dreamy and hypnotic that definitely will put the dancers in a trance state while they float with it united together like being part of a sacred tribe of dance music. Its the version that many lounge djs will select as well for their bar/chill out sets. IKE X remix is the more upfront and euphoric with great piano melancholic balearic piano melody and the exquisite performance of Layori that will touch deeply many hearts for sure and get under your skin easily. It can even make you cry as well. Slowly the big synths are building the excitement and then the great track continues upon a warm bubbly progressive balearic house beat. Last but not least the stars of Kosmo records, Lissat & Voltaxx service the retro tribal tech house remix with cool latin infused rhythm, percussion to make you move and breakdown to mesmerise you with guitar melodies, flute riffs and lively claps. Its one of those tracks that pull you on the dancefloor and you start dancing without even start to thinking about it. Essential release for the summer 2012. Love IT!
