Mick Chillage - Final Storm (Itokim's vision)

The Final Storm is the fourth in the series of remix packs taken from the wonderful 'Departure EP' by Mick Chillage. Since the release of the Departure EP in January 2009, Mick Chillage star has been on the rise and July 2009 sees him release remixes of Final Storm and also a CD on Ireland's Psychonavigation records.

Final Storm is a sublime piece of electronica or techno - call it what you will - but it traverses the deep soulful techno of Detroit with the strange spacey electronica of the UK and Mick via Nice & Nasty has gather 3 super remixers to push the tune farther into space.

Simeon Bowring aka Pentatonik needs little introduction as an award winning music maker has been at the forefront of British techno alongside Black Dog, Plaid, FSOL and Luke Slater whilst Channel 73 are new names but will soon be among the likes of Richard James, Bowring and others whilst Itokim is Nice & Nasty's eastern delight and adds a certain Japanese efficiency to it all.

Mick's original version is deep house meets ambient techno and whilst Channel 73 keeps it very chiiled and even abstract, Itokim delivers the perfect DJ version with a superb 4/4 beat and arguably one of the best Hi Tech Soul trax of 2009.
