Mr. K: Time Of The Season / Theme From Great Cities (Danny Krivit Edits) Vinyl 12"
"Reaching deep into the earliest foundations of his voluminous collection, Danny Krivit presents a psychedelic pop classic rearranged for todayâs sound systems and setlists. Recorded in the Beatlesâ Abbey Road studio at the height of the Summer Of Love, The Zombiesâ 'Time Of The Season' is firmly linked in pop culture to the late â60s and the Vietnam era, although it almost never made it out to a wider audience. Krivitâs edit highlights the parade of lush sonic textures that ornament the hip composition, from the iconic, exquisitely echoed bass-clap-exhale riff that opens the song to the cascading Hammond organ solos of Rod Argent. Naturally, this MEU issue keeps the audio quality at its highest level, the better to appreciate these nuances. From flowers and incense, we move to glass and steel. 'Theme For Great Cities' envelops us in a soaring, intense groove, as emblematic of the post-punk no wave style of 1981 as 'Time of the Season' was to its own era. Produced by Gongâs Steve Hillage, this futuristic instrumental is a bit like Bowieâs wordless works with Eno, with an added downtown edge. 'The original really struck me,' Danny recalls, 'especially at Roxy in the early â80s hip hop nights, on that Richard Long sound system⊠It really blew me away with its atmosphere!' Dannyâs edit combines the lean and mean original with a trackier remixed version, cleanly lifting off on an epic ride that clocks in at nearly ten minutes." - Most Excellent Unlimited
