The EP got released on vinyl and digital on Mars 8.
If there’s one name that causes endless ripples of excitement in dance music it’s the legendary Laurent Garnier, entering his fourth decade in music with a new and rare collection of tracks on the pioneering Crosstown Rebels imprint.
Returning with his side project, ALASKA, with which Garnier released previously as early as 1993 and most recently 8 years ago in 2002, ‘It’s Just Muzik’ is pure dancefloor magic, featuring two cuts of epic craftmanship that we have come to expect and love from Laurent Garnier.
The leading track is a brooding ten minutes monster, apocalyptic from the outset and set off with the recurring vocal, ‘It’s Just Muzik’. True to the statement this is a simple, honest and mind-blowing production. ‘Stargazing’ is its dreamy sister, playing out other worldly atmospheres to truly cosmic effect. The result is a sincere Garnier package, shamelessly larger-than-life and endlessly impressive.
Laurent Garnier has won the hearts of every electronic music fan through his gift of seamlessly blending a multitude of styles of music, piling up many years of memorable performances in every far corner of the world. From producing countless anthems including ‘The Man With The Red Face’, and strings of albums to fronting seminal imprint F-Communications, Laurent has remained at the forefront of the dance music scene for over twenty years.
