Upside Down - Remixes

The follow up to the “Panic Bells” remix single is “Upside Down”, which brings a superb pair of mixes of the nsu original from the “Escape” EP (featuring US rapper JR Trap) by two rising star producers, combining together to make for a real dance-floor assault. The first cut sees Sydney-based Nikolozi bring forth some heavy gut-busting tribal-techno, which is followed up by the return of Auckland DJ and producer AP3X (of Audio Damage) serving up a slice of pounding breakbeat.

The remix single is available now in digital (MP3) format from Bandcamp, iTunes, JunoDownload.com, Amplifier.co.nz, AmazonMP3 and other online retailers.

“Upside Down” is taken from the “Escape” EP (NCMR002EP), out now.
