Lost My Dog release their second remixes EP, where the label’s favourite producers are invited to pick a track from the back catalogue and give their own take on it. Drafted in this time for a three track EP are Phil Weeks, Funky Transport and Lost My Dog’s own Pete Dafeet.
Phil Weeks opts to take on YSE’s ‘Bounce Back’ which is one of the label’s best selling releases in their three year history. The original mix on LMD015 was touted as the ‘biggest deep house track’ at the Miami Music Conference 2007 by DJs including Joey Youngman and Swirl People. Two remixes by 2020 Vision starlet Burnski helped cement its popularity. Phil Weeks is best known for his sub-bass heavy no-nonsense club tracks, many of which come out on his superb Robsoul label. Phil has risen to the top of his game as a producer having collaborated with the likes of David Duriez, DJ Sneak and Derrick Carter and was someone Lost My Dog wanted to work with again after he provided a remix for the label’s fifth release back in 2005.
Pete Dafeet chooses to revisit one of his own tracks. ‘Lungs’ was originally remixed on LMD018 by Fred Everything who did wonders with Pete’s self-recorded vocal. So taken was Pete with the new vocal that he wanted to go back to his own original version and give it an overhaul using Fred’s accapella. Pete’s star as a producer is constantly rising; recent months have seen releases on Detour, Head Tunes, S-Sens, Kolour and his own reborn Southside Shuffle label, while the rest of 2008 includes tracks and remixes for Uniform, Artizan and Blacksoul.
Rounding off the EP is Funky Transport, aka Iain MacPherson, from Aberdeen, Scotland. Funky Transport’s eight year production career has several highlights including EPs for 2020 Vision, LowDown, Brique Rouge, Chez and Derrick Carter and Luke Solomon’s Classic Records. Iain is also a fixture at Club Snafu in his hometown, regularly playing host to the world’s leading DJs as they pass through. When Lost My Dog approached Iain about this release he immediately picked out Luckystars’ ‘Swimming Under The Ice’, which was originally released on LMD013.
