CAPP Records, in association with Mental Madness Records (Germany), is pleased to bring you an amazing new release, Mortal Kombat (Techno Syndrome) 2k11.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the classic videogame, Mortal Kombat. To celebrate, we present an incredible new version of this classic cult anthem. The song has become the de facto theme song for the game; it dates back to 1993 when it saw its first single release—the same year the game was released for home game console play.
Diehard fans have been clamoring for an update to the song; Richard Dalton—DJ and programmer for Seattle's C89.5 (KNHC), the top-rated dance radio station—tipped-off artist/producer Cary August to this fact in late 2010, and convinced him of the need to do an updated version.
Sold on the idea, August convinced fellow producer DJ Analyzer to work with him on the project, and then assembled a global team of today's hottest dance producers to contribute remixes. Performing the vocals, August also dug a classic 15+ year old Korg synthersizer out of his basement, so he could recreate the warmth and character of the original synth lead.
For this release, CAPP wanted to ensure that the song was treated expertly, so it would remain faithful to the original track, while at the same time blazing new music trails. The DJ Gollum mix is designed for those diehard Mortal Kombat fans who covet the original version of the song, which itself comes in a vocal mix, and a dub instrumental for gamers.
To this, we've added a little something for everyone. The release begins with strong electro treatment from Thomas You. It's followed by an incredible dubstep mix from Gimbal & Sinan. The renowned Jan van Bass-10 brings a great hardstyle mix to the party, followed by a new techno remix from none other than
Brooklyn Bounce. DJ Analyzer delivers his classic hands-up mix, while Alex Hilton brings a nice Dirty Dutch mix on-board. Finally, Oliver Contestabile contributes a high-NRG house mix.
