WhoMadeWho 'Children' on The Moment

The key is restraint. In Mind Against and Dyzen's remix of WhoMadeWho's 'Children', there is as much harmony in it as there is percussion. The original's vocal is preserved, but its sharp edges are rounded off, softened so it can drift over the top of a mix that never feels crowded. There are few hits to the beat; instead, the percussion is laid with a soft level and headroom to spare, so that the record keeps a gentle pulse rather than a slam. The treble carries, but it does not dominate. It is a remix that treats restraint as a feature, not a limitation.

Mind Against and Dyzen's version is a new single on The Moment, out 11 Jan 2024. The track is built from the ground up to let the vocal stay central, and the soft drums at its edge keep it in the light. WhoMadeWho wrote the original; the remix keeps the intent while making the production roomier and more open. The release follows WhoMadeWho's 'Inferno di Dante 6' from December and came days before WhoMadeWho closed the 12 Jan at Day Zero Tulum 2024 in Tulum and Mind Against's slot at Tomorrowland presents CORE Tulum at Zamna Tulum on 13 Jan. The dates place this record firmly at the front of the Tulum season, and Mind Against listed it first of ten in his 'Children' Chart, also on 13 Jan.
