Day 5: Harry Choo Choo Romero “Phuture” Joris Voorn Remix (2010)
Ovum continues its15 Year celebration by welcoming back a dear friend. Having previously provided remixes on Ovum releases, we couldn’t be prouder or more excited to welcome back Harry ‘Choo Choo’ Romero for his very own debut release on the label.
Harry ‘Choo Choo’ Romero has been at the forefront of the world’s House scene for many years. Effortlessly straddling the divide of Crossover and Underground, Harry has found huge success in both. Best known for this hit releases on Subliminal and his own Bambossa imprint, including ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’, ‘Night At The Black’, ‘I Go Back’, ‘Dancin” and ‘Tania’. We have also seen him riding high in the recent download charts, with his 2009 remix of Hardrive’s ‘Deep Inside’ reaching #1 on the Beatport rundown.
Today Harry returns to the underground with one of his finest productions to date, ‘Phuture’. Having been throughly road tested by label chief Josh Wink and filed as a ‘secret weapon’, we are now ready to unleash the beast.
A heaving, industrial sized bassline opens the show. Sharp stabs and snare snaps introduce us to the female computerized vocal. Harry creates the toughest and slickest of grooves throughout, and has delivered a track that is set to rock the summers floors.
Charged with the task of remixing ‘Phuture’ is one of the most in form producers of the moment and we are excited to have him on board. Joris Voorn has taken an already killer groove and notched it up a level. Powerful and rolling, the bass and beats are joined by a twisted vocal and bright piano riffs to create fantastic reworking.
In his own words:
“In its 15 years of existence, Ovum has released some of my absolute favourite records. There always seems to be room for the experiment and innovation, but also just pure dance music. With my HCCR remix on Ovum I focused on the latter, no nonsense hands in the air groove driven house with a techno feel.
– Joris Voorn
