A Limited Purple Vinyl repress for 2024. The Classic 'At Les' remixed by Christian Smith with the blessing of Carl Craig.

Delivered in both Tronic Treatment and Hypnotica Remix forms, Smith has taken the originals warmth, musicality and emotion and given them the sort of energy and power which has made him one of the most bankable producers of recent years.

The Tronic Treatment remix starts slow but with careful and patient layering of melodies builds to an epic, peak time track which takes on an almost orchestral feel while the aptly titled Hypnotica Remix takes a slightly more aggressive, loopier and hypnotic take.

After being wowed by Christian Smith’s superb remix of Carl Craig’s ‘At Les’ the legendary Underworld listed it as one of their tunes of 2010 thereby planting a seed in the veteran producers mind. A mutual appreciation and the aforementioned events have resulted in Smith’s biggest remix yet – the reworking of Underworld’s seminal ‘Dark & Long’. Coming in two versions, both of which have won immense support from the band themselves, the Christian Smith remixes of ‘Dark & Long’ take the track in to new territories respectfully and skilfully. The Tronic Treatment mix preserves the vibe of the original perfectly while adding a condensed but slow burning feeling of tension which explodes into the epic break we all know and love. The Hypnotica dub version underpins Karl Hydes classic vocal refrain and the rich synths of the original with an ever-changing, guttural monster of a bassline that adds a whole load of understated aggression without ever taking over the wonderful melodies.
