This remix replaces the hot, frantic funk and falsetto of the Gus Gus original with a cool, slinky, ethereal vibe. Taking a cue from classic dub, Thievery Corporation strips the melody to its barest essentials. What remains is a dark, atmospheric chill-out track that's nearly all instrumental. The heavy groove flirts with Miami-style bass, smoothing the street edge with a plinking keyboard and a ghostly vocal loop.

Thievery Corporation turned this Gus Gus tune into a downtempo gem. Very sultry groove!
