Gerd - For 12 Minutes She Danced with an Alien cover
RA Review
Dutch producer Gerd-Jan Bijl is having an odd kind of renaissance. In addition to the well-received "Friendly Fire," his early 2009 track "1 in the Morning" was recently remixed by DJ Koze, and now there's "For 12 Minutes She Danced With an Alien," a 1995 B-side (on an equally wonderfully named labe..

seriuosly, why am I not surprised? with RA being so generous with ratings for each mediocre work coming from Joris Voorn's camp, it could have easily gotten 5/5...ridiculous

very unimpressed with this. JV and Rejected have just become stuck on big room slanted techno-house material. nothing interesting going on here and way below Gerd's recent material.

have to disagree with the previous comments, this is a great record, and the review is spot on.

this records is about the groove, about the vibe, just like all other rejected...this could very well be the soundtrack to my summer! brings back the days when house was pure groove, stabby and about the feeling not the sound, this just takes it back a notch sound wise and injects the soul back into the electric minimalistic tech filled scene right now! thanks joris, thanks rejected!

It's not bad but it's not exactly original.

Bit fed up with Voorn - same stuff over and over again.

Shame cos he's better than that!

... dropping these comments on Discogs too... i loved the 'original' on BMU that came out 15 years ago and still love it today. the original hook comes from Robert Aaron's Sax in the Ozone on Eightball - which has a laid back sax and vocal for the early 90s afterhours sound. Gerd's mix retains a bit more of that flavor on his 2010 version. JV's version has some nice effects - and plus I heard Francois K dropping this who of course added more of his own on top of it.

this is music for late night space dancing.
