Popof feat Arno Joey 'Lidl Girl' (Hot Creations)
Lidl Girl’ isn’t, in fact, the story of a checkout girl, but the third single to come from Popof’s 2015 album ‘Love Somebody’. The original is a solid house workout with stunning vocals from Arno Joey and grounded bass, squelching acid and sturdy beats, but it’s the remix from industry doyen Kerri Chandler that’s the real draw. He adds shuffling beats, raw percussion and a plodding pattern to inject it with a new groove. The Carl Cox Collective are next up with a rolling techno monster, before Shaun Reeves and Tucillo take things even deeper with their mix. Chandler’s rework is our favourite, though.
