REVIEW: Dirty Vegas - Save A Prayer The Remixes out on D:Vision records


Though busy wrapping up their fourth full-length - due out early this year on d:vision - Dirty Vegas found some time to bust out a cover of Duran Duran's holy hit "Save a Prayer". The UK-based duo, comprised of Paul Harris and Steve Smith, blesses the classic '80s song with a scintillating, dancefloor-ready version. Steve wails about a casual encounter, while a stabbing chord progression flirts with the original synth-driven riff. The result is a succulent slice of four-four paradise.

Dirty Vegas the British dance duo’s impeccable remake of the Duran Duran classic ‘Save A Prayer’ gets the remix treatment by the producer that’s on pretty much everyone’s lips at the moment, Italy’s very own Luca Guerrieri!

Luca takes the deep and infectious electronic groove of the original and re-works it into an incredible, driven future House number, with a weighty bassline, heavy kick drums and piano infused notes, giving the track a fresh dose of definitive crossover appeal. Big, big, big, tune!

Dirty Vegas the British dance duo’s impeccable remake of the Duran Duran classic ‘Save A Prayer’ gets the remix treatment by Italy’s EDM finest export, Djs From Mars!

The Martians enter the mix with their high energy, anthemic take, capturing the essence of the original, but adding even bigger buildups, ebullient chords, titanic drums and incredible drops. Big, big, big, tune!

The British dance duo Dirty Vegas have been given a retro Nu Disco makeover courtesy of fellow UK producer LeSonic and the result is a slowed-down and washed-out remix that features the original’s big chords and some distorted vocal work.

It's got bouncy beats, chubby basslines and a classic sing-a-long vocal so no doubt this is going to become a future Balearic sunsets and sunrises classic.







Dimitri Kechagias review: The beloved Italian based label D:Vision and famous globally presents the brand new single by Dirty Vegas who are of course one of the coolest electronic projects in UK at the moment. Their decision to remake the adorable Duran Duran classic Save A Prayer is a very wise one as they did it with so much respect to the original and they add new twist to it as well. Deep haunting basslines, chunky tribal grooves, hypnotic strings, memorable synths and of course the mesmerising vocals that carry you away out from the real into a magical place that only good music can transfer you to go. The remix package is extensive and includes top versions to choose from and drop without mercy. Firstly is the Luca Guerrieri remix that will blow your mind without doubts. The chunky techy groove, the electro inspired bassline, the dark ravey piano chords and the hypnotic groove add to the track so much energy that will move big crowds in any mainstage situation. The performance of the vocal is simply right on the spot with Dirty Vegas colour and unique personality all over it. The same remix is offered as dub for those who would like to experiment with their own acapellas. Djs From Mars transform the original into an upfront progressive house smasher that applies very early on the well known synthy riff that give you shivers whenever you hear it. Superb driving dynamic remix with drop that will cause mayhem with aggressive in your face atmosphere perfect to jump and dance a long! Certainly the mainstream audience will find this version perfect for their taste. Last but not least  LeSonic Remix is the perfect nu disco / deep house alternative with cool sexy basslines, lazy chunky grooves, 80's electro pop synths, piano chords and stretched down vocals that have become trademark for this style. It's a magnificent package that house lovers and 80's aficionados should not miss. #PureGold Love It
