This new Caribou Solomun remix has French Touch / Daft Punk vibes
The Ibiza megastar DJ turns in a subtle rework of Dan Snaith’s original track.
‘Climbing’ from Dan Snaith’s latest Caribou album Honey, already has that spinning disco ball glittery effect in its main melody, but for the remix, no less than the German producer and DJ Solomun, best known for his DJ residencies in Ibiza takes the source material and gives it a subtle production for dancefloors.]
Not that the original needed much work, with Snaith as able as anyone to spin a dance track these days, but Solomun adds some Daft Punk-esque funk glitter and French Touch dynamics to the original, extended it out to eight-plus minutes on the club mix.
It’s the kind of remix that would have you hankering for a dance this weekend.
