Over the last few years, Boy 8-Bit has become widely known as a "producer's producer." Blending ingenuity with pure talent and super attention to detail, he has found a unique way of bringing house music fans something they haven't heard anywhere else. Following his well received Suspense Is Killing Me EP, remixes slowly trickled in and a year or so later we've come up with a great little package! Kicking things off is Philipe De Boyar's gated, monster-synth dancefloor remix of the title track, which has been Boy 8-Bit's version of choice in the club for a long time. The ever-evolving producer Memory Tapes gives us a totally unique remix of "Cricket Scores," flipping dreamy synths into death metal inspired double kickdrum madness. Guaranteed to blow a few minds. In an inspired move, Helskinki's Obi Blanche features a beautiful live saxophone melody on his mix of "Bulbs Burn Out," dropping it into a moving, breathing kick house banger with just the right amount of sax. Boy 8-Bit takes over the B-side with his own remix of "Cricket Scores" featuring a brilliant synthline that's like half disco half techno flavor. And lastly, "Ghost House," his sequel / brother to "Suspense Is Killing Me." Simply an awesome track that touches on influences from classic rave to breakbeat.
