International Feel (Re) Release the Slo Mo Classic

Feb 2009, Punta Del Este, Uruguay….. International Feel is born out of the frustration of not been able to get a deal for the Rocha single (yeah, I know we've heard that too many times already), but what actually inspired Rocha and therefore the label ?

One track: 'Boutade' by Mugwump. The best chunky Slo Mo dance track ever made (or if you prefer, the 'best dance track of the noughties' - copyright Bill Brewster). We loved it so much that Mugwump were the first remixers we contacted to reinterpret the Rocha release.

Four years (and some grey hair) later, we've come full circle and are (as our American cousins say) very 'stoked' to be able to announce the re-release of this brilliant track on International Feel, complete with a (already road tested by Weatherall & Smagghe) 2013 Techno Redux and the glorious New Beat of 'God is Gracious' (and for all the zero and one merchants, it'll also be available digitally for the first time with an added dub of the new 2013 version).

Originally released on Ewan Pearson's elusive Misericord imprint and played by everyone from Mr Scruff to Optimo, Tensnake to Dixon and the aforementioned Weatherall & Smagghe, the tension, joy and energy rush created by the filmic strings and monstrous Carl Craig-esque bassline, has made 'Boutade' the track that refuses to lie down and die (and hailed as 'the most requested record ever' by London's Phonica Records).

Resident Advisor have described Mugwump's output as 'the most diverse catalogue in the current house music field' and Pitchfork simply reviewed their music as 'timeless'. Whatever the description, the reality is that Geoffroy Mugwump and Kolombo have created a legacy of non-formulaic music fusing together their love of 80's pop music, ebm, dub, industrial & new-beat influences with disco & techno and have released their music on a variety of worlds leading dance labels, from Kompakt to R&S, Cocoon to Gigolo as well as Permanent Vacation, Eskimo, Endless Flight any many others.
