Hannah Holland and Josh Caffe 'Fade To Me' (Crosstown Rebels)
Hannah Holland has been responsible for some great cuts for the likes of Classic and Nervous, in addition to her output on her own label Batty Bass. ‘Fade To Me’, her collaboration with Josh Caffe, is sure to gain plenty of attention thanks to its whispered vocal, modulating synth and tough drums; it feels right at home on Damian Lazarus’ label Crosstown Rebels and, if placed well in a set, it has the potential to be lethal. Tuff City Kids have been trusted with remix duties, and turn out to be an inspired choice: Gerd Janson and Phillip Lauer produce a kipper main-room mix that’s built upon trance fanfare and sine waves. Both the strong original and the massive remix should be very popular indeed.
