When We Dip | Premiere: Kiko puts his remix signature on TNTS' track 'Tragedy'

Oscar Aguilera’s new melodic house label HE-ART Blue is back with its second release, and in addition to the original track by TNTS, it features two stunning remixes from Kiko. TNTS also provided the originals on the label’s last release that picked up support by everyone ranging from Eelke Kleijn to Nick Warren. Other imprints to feature the Belgian’s music include Sasha Carassi’s Phobiq and the legendary Global Underground. Kiko is an incredibly talented artist from France whose epic blend of soaring pads and emotive melodies can be heard on labels such as Afterlife, Get Physical and Stil Vor Talent.

The original mix of ‘Tragedy’ opens the release with air raid sirens cutting through the poignant pads and hypnotic melody of its stripped back groove. Shrouded in a dark atmosphere it unfolds with building suspense and moody tension, to create a dystopian soundscape underpinned by club friendly percussion. The first of Kiko’s two remixes is an uplifting take on the original with epic pads and powerful synth lines added to key elements from the original. Transforming the track, this remix is perfectly suited to the melodic style of other artists such as ARTBAT and Mind Against. Finishing the release is Kiko’s Dub Remix, which is a more understated version that sits somewhere between the original and his other mix. Opting for a more atmospheric approach, it’s still got some of his additional synths. Cinematic and thought provoking, it’s still perfectly suited to the dance floor.

You can now listen to Kiko’s Dub remix exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
