Andy Motke aka Dominatrix to win Martin Gore remix contest?
In association with BitTorrent, Martin Gore launched a remix competition for the track “Featherlight” taken from the “MG” album. The winning remix will be included on an upcoming digital EP, out October 2nd, 2015.
The EP will furthermore include remixes by Andy Stott, Virgil Enzinger, and Christoffer Berg, alongside two previously unreleased tracks.
We have listened to a whole bunch of these remixes, and only one seemed to jump out, namely the one executed by Andy Motke aka Dominatrix. Motke is not really unknown to Depeche Mode related remixes, he also completed a remix of “Heaven” which was actually a lot better than the rather daft original (including a lot of vintage Depeche Mode samples).
You can listen to both remixes below.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
The donations are safely powered by Paypal.
