# Listen to Sun Glitters’ Subtle and Compelling Remix of Koloto
Often the subtlest remixes are the most compelling. Luxembourgian
producer Sun Glitters' take on the title track from Koloto's
forthcoming *Mechanica* EP isn't so much an overhaul as a tweak; the
original's dextrous toy piano cascades remain untouched in the
foreground, while a throbbing kick and naive synth buzzes past it in a
hazier light. The two takes have meshed in our minds, with the
skittering half-step percussion of the original lending a ghostly charge
to the spaces in between Sun Glitters' house thumps. We can only hope
that further reinterpretations from Dot, CloZee, Ekoda Map, Escaping
Animals, and Set In Sand imbue this excellent release with more and more
shades of detail.
*Mechanica + Remixes* is set for release on Abandon Building Records on
October 28th. You can preorder it [here][1]{: target="_blank"}, and
reflect on an earlier moment in Sun Glitters' career via our Slices
feature from 2012.[
