This is what I call a remix!

Hardfloor, Acid Techno duo consisting of Oliver Bondzio & Ramon Zenkewho really know their way around a Roland TB – 303.

Check out this remix they did in 1994 of an African pop song by Mory Kante.

Mory Kante – Yeke Yeke (Hardfloor Remix)

Their distinctive acid flavour is running right through this, it went on to become an instant classic across the world & propelled Kanté to some unexpected fame again in 1994.

Here is what Hardfloor had to work with, quite amazing this could have become one of the timeless tunes of the techno era.
