Kid Sister - Remixes (Simian Mobile Disco + LA Riots) 12"

the lab review

This one deserves the... hooooooly chit! A-Trak and Catch called in the big guns for this vinyl-only EP featuring four brand new remixes of Kid Sis' finest cuts to date, "Control" and "Pro Nails." Remixes by whom, you ask? Hows about SMD (aka Simian Mobile Disco), JFK of MSTRKRFT, newly-inked Fool's Gold'ers LA Riots, and the juke icon himself DJ Gant-Man. I gotta say, Simian steal the show with their remix of "Pro Nails(1)," even though it's more of a cover version and doesn't even feature any Kid Sis vocals! Instead, SMD re-imagine the track as a slow rolling, dubstep-flavored heater and the results are entrancing. Gant-Man's excellent jacking club mix(2) gets a reprise too, and that one's got nuff Kid Sis vocal chops. Flip it over for a pair of cracking "Control" mixes: JFK's raved out banger(3) and LA Riots bassy 4x4 take(4). Now that's bang for your buck. Comes in a stickered Fool's Gold jacket. Recommended.
