stop-modernists-subculture
Why it took this long for the two men behind STOP MODERNISTS to join forces is remarkable in itself.
First there's Jori Hulkkonen, undoubtedly Finland's most profilic DJ/producer with an unparalleled CV featuring releases, productions, remixes and DJ gigs all over the globe in the last 15 years, on the hottest labels, for the hottest artists, and in the hottest clubs.
And then you have Alex Nieminen, one of the pioneering house DJ's in Finland who became synonymous with quality house music for the true connoisseurs with his legendary radioshows on a national network. Friends for almost two decades, but it wasn't until this new alliance was formed that things finally clicked.
As STOP MODERNISTS they bring together the music and the passion behind the music that has inspired them, and give it a twist for the twenty-tens.
So it comes as no surprise that the debut outing from this pair goes straight to the source: a cover version of New Order's criminally underrated SUBCULTURE, with production giving a knowing head-nod to late 80's New York/Chicago deephouse scene.
On vocal duties Chris Lowe (of the Pet Shop Boys) delivers not only a take fitting for someone who is truly a contemporary, but adds his own spin on the song making this a timeless record.

I Like :-) If It`s Chris :-) The Autotune is a little too Much,,, But, AnyWay, The Track is Cool, like the 80`s sound it`s making me Happy, and i think it`s the future :-) "again", at least i hope. Anyway, Chris is my last hope now Schneider has stopped playing Kraftwerk :-)

Sorry, I love the PSB's but this isn't a patch on the original, and if you aren't going to bring something new to the mix (and sorry this cover version says nothing new) then what's the point? Buy the original instead.
