What makes everybody’s darling duo Monkey Safari so special is surely their authenticity; with their striking debut album Odyssey , this meant producing the same kind of tracks they were playing as they toured nightclubs and festivals around the world, rather than simply a listening album. The result was a dance floor artwork. And while they may be perfectionists, they’re certainly no purists, carefully handpicking remixers they see as most capable of continuing their vision for the album.
Split in 3 separate EPs, Odyssey Remixed – One, Two, and Three will be released in May, June, and July 2018, featuring reworks of the original album tracks by the master himself, Carl Cox, international stars Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Musumeci, Tensnake and Reboot, studio geniuses Dubspeeka, Hannes Bieger, ROD, and Phil Moffa, as well as up-and-coming talent Avidus , Trivmph , and Hommage label co-chief Karl Friedrich.
Today we are premiering Dubspeeka’s contribution to the second outing of this Remixed project. The Bristol producer was nothing less than excited to be a part of the release, adding his touch to “From The Purple Sky”:
“Being asked to lay hands on one track of the last Monkey Safari album was a big pleasure for me, as I have been a fan of their work for a while. Even though it was rather challenging, as the original is a perfectly produced floor killer. So I tried to bring the track into a more dirty direction with a long breakdown, but without leaving the original’s idea too much. I hope people enjoy the results.” – Dubspeeka
