Danse Macabre Remixes

A high-voltage reimagining of the band's breakthrough record. Jagged electroclash meets club-focused breakbeats and industrial-tinged house rhythms.

April 1, 2003 · Labels

This album is the sound of the early 2000s electroclash movement pushed through a blender of dancefloor-ready production. While the original Danse Macabre was a tense, gothic-indie masterpiece, this remix collection strips those songs down to their rhythmic chassis and rebuilds them for the warehouse. It feels like a sweat-slicked basement party where the air is thick with smoke and the lights are flickering in time with the kick drum.

Moments Worth Listening For

The moment the minimalist house beat in the Agenda Suicide remix suddenly blooms into a thick wall of synth.

The way The Conductor is stripped back to its skeletal rhythm before the bassline aggressively re-enters.

The glitchy, pitch-shifted vocal manipulation that turns a familiar hook into a rhythmic percussion element.
