Electric Six - Danger! High Voltage [Soulchild 'Blitz' Mix by Damien Mendis] by Damien Mendis SOULCHILD published on 2012-07-14T11:36:29Z During 2002 & early 2003 I produced and mixed a band from Detroit called Electric Six (formely known as The Wild Bunch). An early version of what would become their first global release was featured on the 2 Many DJ's mix compilation "As Heard On Radio Soulwax Pt. 2". That song was "Danger! High Voltage". After completing the Album/Radio Version, I then decided to do an additional 'Video Mix' (with a longer outro & cold ending) and an extended mix for the 12 inch release. The latter I named 'Soulchild Bltz Mix' in tribute to the legendary Tuesday night club event that took place in London, between 1979-1980. The 'Soulchild Blitz Mix' features many addtional production overdubs. A lot of my old analogue synthesizers were dug out for this version, such as: Jupiter 8, Moog, ARP Odyssey, Prophet 5. The live drum kit is punctuated by a processed Linn 9000 Kick. You can hear percussion loops. There's an entirely legal nod to New Order's "Blue Monday"/Donna Summer "Our Love". The sounds were so authentically recreated, it made the record company (XL) really nervous about being sued. So, they cleared it 'just to be on the safe side'! Trainspotters may be able to spot references to Roxy Music, Japan, David Bowie, Queen, Duran Duran, Sylvester, First Choice, and even... Modern Romance. Write to me if you can guess which songs/parts!
