Pictur vinyl

After one half of the legendary Optimo Dj's broke out with his side line in Betty Botox edits last year, now it's the turn of Jonnie Wilkes to try something solo. Named after a Russian sculptor, the collaboration between Wilkes and James Savage from Oscuro P has already yielded one 12", and this second gets two stunning remixes from a couple of top-name producers.

Wonderboy producer Joakim, who got global props after his mix of Dj Mehdi's Pocket Piano unleashes a beast with his version, an epic acid disco track that ebbs and flows to perfection over ten glorious minutes. It's hard to imagine something this deep and well crafted will be slept on and it could well turn out to be a bit of a classic over the next few months - it's that good.

Former DFA and UNKLE helmsman Tim Goldsworthy did an initial mix of Pictur under his alias The Loving Hand. It was a 6 part, 24 minute long mix that thankfully has been edited down by Naum Gabo for the single into two Dj-friendly excerpts. Even in it's edited state it retains the original's sense of odyssey, as Goldsworthy takes the listener on a real journey over the two tracks. Remixes this accomplished and sophisticated don't come around every day, so it's well worth picking these up sharpish.
