Johnson Righeira 'Vamos A La Playa' (2016 Baldelli & Dionigi remake) (Opilec Music)
This month’s oddest release comes from Opilec in Italy. The label has licensed Itali classic ‘Vamos A La Playa’ and given it several reworks (if you don’t know the tune, Google it – it’s pretty funny). This remix throws in big 80s synths, a rolling bassline and the classic vocal from the original song to create something that’s oddly catchy, although we’re not sure whether this could be dropped in any moody techno clubs – it might work at a sunny party, but it’s certainly not for the dirty dungeon at Berghain.
