After an effortlessly amazing year of hit productions, high-profile remixes and intense touring, Brooklyn hero Drop The Lime dusts off the deep crimson cowl of alter ego Curses! and kills the yearly race to “Best EP” before it’s even started. With his first Institubes records, Hungry for Love, had established Curses! as a master of early nineties dance. The Deep End will be something of a suprise for some of the bass-heads: it is a song, with Maggie Horn diva-ing over a fluid but heavy mix of beats, effects, piano and guitar, featuring the meanest Morricone riff of recent memory. It’s a poppier sound, with house, disco and rock constantly outdoing each other, but it still sounds massive.
Within Curses!'s distortion field, genres meld and mutate, a song is also a track is also a hymn, scary is beautiful and classic is new.
And check out “Moss Man” on the flip for serious dancefloor assault. Heavy bass shines eternal.

Remixes come from two heavyweights of their respective scenes. In a once-in-a-lifetime meeting of the super-exclamatory dance heros, DFA stars Holy Ghost! fully actualize the disco potential of the song, turning it into an eight-minute workout, with Nancy Whang (LCD Soundsystem / Juan MacLean) providing additional vocals.
Bart B More needs no introduction, the man is electro-house incarnate. All the requisite dancefloor-shattering moves And for a funkier take on turning the world upside down, check out his dub mix.
