Automatic (Remixes) by Erol Alkan

The hundredth single on Phantasy, Erol Alkan's 'Automatic' returns to vinyl, accompanied by two contrasting and compelling remixes from Palms Trax and LA Priest. Out now on 12" vinyl and digitally.

The landmark hundredth single on Phantasy, Erol Alkan’s ‘Automatic’ returns accompanied with two remixes that further take the London DJ and producer’s psychedelic club vision in distinct directions.

Palms Trax builds on the sensual reverie of Alkan’s production with an electrifying rework full of touches both French and personal. Throwing out a gloriously chic bassline, the Berlin-based producer sprinkles carefully considered sweeps, stabs and filters on a trip to timeless house euphoria.

Mirroring the first ever artist to release on Phantasy in 2007 where Alkan remixed 'Engine', LA Priest proves a perfect candidate to reconstruct the label’s centenary single, a task he approaches with typically esoteric nous. Coaxing a heavenly aura from the original’s glorious loops, Sam Eastgate’s collection of reengineered and self-made analogue equipment soon progresses to melt Automatic’s rhythm into sticky cosmic bliss.

James Welsh applies his signature pressure to a digital-exclusive remix of Erol Alkan’s ‘Automatic’, the 100th single release on Phantasy. Following interpretations from Palms Trax and LA Priest, Alkan invites one of the most prolific and consistently creative artists in Phantasy’s artist family to shift his euphoric filter house in a full-bodied techno direction, wrestling with daunting rave chords atop maximal waves of EBM and industrial.
