Love Saves The Day vinyl

Love Saves The Day, Kaine's collaboration with disco chanteuse du jour Kathy Diamond, is certainly one of this years more simplistically anthemic disco cuts with little more than the gloriously euphoric piano riffs to accompany Miss Diamond's distinctive tones. Needwant call in the favours on remix duties with Boston duo Soul Clap and Lithuanian Mario Basanov. Part of the Wolf & Lamb clique, Soul Clap are on the rise and their remix does them justice, with retro drum programming the backdrop to shimmering piano and expertly judged dubbing on Diamonds vocals. No stranger to the Needwant imprint, Basanov steps up with two differing takes. The uplifting vocal remake is steeped in the 80s, all intermittent guitar licks and burning synth bass lines, but it's the dub version where Basanov really impresses though. The track is built around a killer bassline squelch and snappy kicks, with Diamond's vocals chopped up and stretched out sublimely across the soft flourishes of piano. Another top release from Needwant.
