"The Hooj Remixes"

Questions will inevitably have to be asked here as to how / why Hooj have shamelessly broken the informal UN backed agreement to NOT REMIX / RE-RELEASE C*F* D*L M*R, EVER AGAIN. But after the Hooj Catalogue owners cajoled the old A+R team into a Hooj Electronic Orchestra album in 2021, the then up and coming Borai + Denham Audio were enlisted for remixes, and fast forward a couple of years, the Bristol duo are smashing it in 2023, and vinyl does indeed beckon.
And with some justification it has to be said, as the Bristol duo took chunks of the original Wim Mertens melody and somehow still managed to drag it into new terrain, introducing rough breaks and hardcore sensibilities into proceedings, for the first time in the track's 30 + years journey.
On the B-side, another star turn from the early 90's get's the BDA treatment, as Transformer 2's "Fruit Of Love" get's a more polished / musical approach on the Audio Redux mix (though with no compromise on bottom end / beats dynamics), and Borai contributes a rolling, percussive 4/4 dub.
