Following their recent ZE 30 anniversary compilation album, Struts collaboration with mighty New York imprint ZE Records continues this Autumn with ZEVOLUTION, bringing together new and rare DJ edits of ZE tracks by 12 leading producers.
ZE has continued to be a prime source for DJs with dozens of re-edits surfacing in recent years, re-working and extending the labels experimental post-punk grooves for maximum dancefloor punch.
Many of the edits have become classics in their own right on this album, we feature Todd Terje Friendly Children re-work of Gichy Dans On A Day Like Today, Soul Mekaniks dubbed out treatment of Kid Creoles Annie, still a staple in many DJ boxes.
Others have surfaced briefly on limited white label 12s or on blog sites the prolific Social Disco Club from Porto and Idjut Boys, whose brilliant re-touch of another Kid Creole track here, Im Corrupt, is much in-demand.
For the album, Strut also commissioned a fresh batch of versions, many transforming seminal ZE tracks which have previously been tricky to play in clubs.
Richard Sen sews together brilliantly the two parts of James Whites fidgety Almost Black, Italian DJ team The Barking Dogs create a tracky beast from Arto Lindsays beatless ZE experiment Pini Pini and Luke Howard and Felix Dickinson from Horse Meat Disco create the best club version yet of Aural Exciters Spooks In Space.
For the heads, there are ultra-rare tracks too Fat Camp resurrect a David Gamson track No Turn On Red, previously only available on an NME cover mount cassette.
ZEVOLUTION features an extensive booklet including an introduction by reedit king Greg Wilson and sleeve notes by Bill Brewster of DJ History.
