The Flirts - '(Ben Liebrand Sweet N Simple Remix)' (2023) Vinyl

Product Description

Produced by the great Bobby Orlando, 'Passion' by the Flirts is a New York-made early '80s classic that was in part inspired by the heavily electronic sound of European disco music. It was highly influential, too, inspiring a wave of dance-loving synth-pop acts including, most famously, the Pet Shop Boys.

Fresh New Sound

These tasteful new mixes subtly update the track for 2023 while retaining much of what made the original such a killer. Check first the A-side 'Sweet N Simple Mix', a slightly housed-up take that otherwise sticks closely to the original script, before flipping to Ben Liebrand's superior (and pleasingly synth-laden) 'Oldskool Mix'. The rubbery, shuffling, New Jersey deep house style 'Midnight Mix' completes a solid package of reworks.
