The choice of Schneider for remix duties was an obvious one, the pair first met on a shuttle bus to an event and in short stead Paul was co-writing for Anja, becoming part of the driving force behind her huge debut album ‘Beyond the Valley’, now she pulls out all the stops to reciprocate with this standout reworking.

Two cuts from the excellent recent album ‘Me, Myself and Live’ see a single release with an oustanding remix from Anja Schneider and Paul himself….

The choice of Schneider for remix duties was an obvious one, the pair first met on a shuttle bus to an event and in short stead Paul was co-writing for Anja, becoming part of the driving force behind her huge debut album ‘Beyond the Valley’, now she pulls out all the stops to reciprocate with this standout reworking.

First up on the package is the Anja Schneider remix of ‘Three Weeks’, the opening cut from Paul’s recent album. Here the pair, deconstruct the parts and rebuild things into a deep and hypnotic version that has instant dancefloor appeal stamped all over it. Solid, chunky drums rub up against simple spacey synth lines and warm pads to huge effect. Bearing in mind the superb quality of the original this is a job well done, and a real addition to this great package.

Next we have the original of ‘Three Weeks’, a track named after the extensive time it took to record. Paul had originally intended to record the album in 6-8 weeks, then ended up spending nearly half of his allocated time on this opener. But it has to be said it was worth the effort. This is a slice of solid tech inspired house with subtle vocal elements and a musicality that cuts through the records club based nature. Excellent stuff.

Finally we have Diamant Flute, another winner from the ‘Me, Myself and Live’ album. Deep and highly engaging this again displays Paul outstanding talents as a producer, weaving melodic elements deep into the mix and retaining an incredible underground electronic sound.

Paul Brtschitsch’s ‘Myself Part 2’ is released on Rootknox in September 2009
