If the original of :Kinema:‘s My Beautiful Machines is straight up classic pop then the remixes courtesy of Sweden’s Drop Out Orchestra, take the track off into disco heaven.

Having been blown away by their re-edits of Robyn and Diana Ross, and their dancefloor dominating ‘International Track’ we approached them more in hope and were overjoyed when they agreed to add their live disco stylings to the release.

Still, even so we weren’t prepared for the results when after several sleepless nights in the studio, they delivered a 12 minute live disco version that is unlikely to be bettered this year.

Teasing out Dominic’s vocals, the track builds and builds, going through several major changes, from orchestral swirls and ridiculously funky bass, through to driving percussion and arpeggiated synths, ensuring that even at 12 minutes long, you’ll still be wanting an even longer re-edit.

Completing the package Drop Out Orchestra have supplied a stripped down dub, My Beautiful Percussion, that just highlights what an insanely good job they did, reduxing their mix into 6 minutes of taut funky disco destined to rule discos this winter.

The original version of My Beatuiful Machines is available on limited edition orange 7” vinyl and on a 5 track digital EP (available Feb 28) with both the original versions, the remixes plus a bonus track I Love Your Beam.
