DE GUI DING (THE REFLEX REVISIONS) | 12IN VINYL

Talc, Twelve inch vinyl pressing. 'Wah Wah 45s hail the much anticipated return of one of their most beloved artists. Way back in 2006, the label first unleashed the anthemic 'Modern Sleepover' by two man, smooth music loving outfit Talc. The song - an ode to a tortured love affair between a computer and it's owner - with it's shades of Zapp, Steely Dan and The Doobie Brothers - found favor with Djs and tastemakers from across the board from Bill Brewster to Gilles Peterson. Such was the cult status of the tune, that it spawned a sequel, naturally entitled 'Modern Sleepover Pt.2: Robot's Return' which has recently had something of a renaissance thanks to an inclusion by legendary Detroit DJ and producer Moodymann on his 'DJ Kicks' compilation. Sixteen years and two albums later, and having seemingly put the project to bed for good, Talc (much like the robot) return for one final and very special release. This brand new 12', as well as featuring the sought after 'Modern Sleepover' pairing together on vinyl for the first time, also includes the rarely heard Michel Legrand cover 'De Gui Ding', previously only available in Japan (where Talc enjoyed a huge underground fan base) as well as two stunning remixes from our old friend, The Reflex. The Frenchman was the obvious choice to rework Legrand's 1964 camp jazz classic, and on his first mix delivers an uplifting disco friendly, vocal led take that should raise a few smiles on the dancefloor. His second mix is more of a late night affair with more of a deep, dubbier, house feel. Something for everyone then on this essential release, complete with gorgeous artwork from our award winning in-house designer Animisiewasz.
