Various Artists - Silver Planet: 50th Anniversary Release (Part One)

  • Share
  • When you are celebrating 50 releases for a label such as Silver Planet, then you look to someone a little special to mark this occasion. The crew at Silver Planet have done just that by calling on the services of Luke Chable as well as Chris Salt to put their remixing touch on two classic releases for the label. On the a-side, Luke Chable gets to grip with Dub Sonar by Chris Salt, and turns in a very intricate remix. Released back in March, Dub Sonar caused quite a stir due to very strong support, and for this release, we see Australian producer, a man who has not put a foot wrong it may seem in the last year, Luke Chable turn in a quirky but driving remix. The track begins intricately with a soothing intro of delicate sounds, shortly before a big strong kick drum comes in. Quirky melodies riddle their way into the track almost building towards something, and slowly but surely, midway in we see some delightful melodies sizzle alongside a deep driving baseline reminiscent of ‘Ride’. It’s another sinister remix by Chable let me tell you. On the flip we see rising talent Chris Salt put his remix hat on for the Main Element classic Delta of Venus. Again, Salt does not disappoint as he turns in a beautiful piece of melodic breakbeat that is riddled with spine tingling melodies, tough driving beats, and deep low end grooves. Featured on the Anthony Pappa Balance release, it is clear to see why this track demands such respect. A very positive release here for Silver Planet, and the first of a two part special that celebrates the 50’th birthday of this fine imprint.
