Alexkid & Chloe - Afterblaster Reblastered

  • Share
  • "I've been playing ‘Afterblaster’ for so long, I didn’t even realized it had never come out.” So says Ivan Smagghe, one of the handful of lucky DJs that have had the CDR of this for the last six months. It was one of those ‘secret weapon’ tracks – people always asking ‘What the fuck is this?’ etc. Now with Kill Brique’s official release, we get to find out. The original is a heavy hitter, and that’s even before it reaches the peaktime ‘blaster’ section. It loads up on heavy kicks and a stomping electro bass before building into an unforgettable throbbing electro workout. Guaranteed to shake the room like a snowglobe. David Duriez and Mazi’s remix keeps the track appropriately huge. It’s still a monster, but it gets there on the back of a funky Chicago-esque melody which will appeal to wider house audiences. The third mix is from techno pioneer Scan X, who transforms ‘Afterblaster’ into a dirty electro groover with a rocking breakbeat-style bassline and some classic percussion. It’s a simple effort but one guaranteed to make booties shake. Lastly, the Before-Blaster edit is a reworking of the original that takes out the epic-ness and holds a steady groove, making it a very complimentary re-edit that tech-house DJ’s can appreciate. All in all, it can’t get any more big room than this. Vive la France!
