Laurent Garnier

I like the original mix – will play it out.

Noir

Another hypnotic and driving track from Alternative Route. Another winner.

Number One Plastic Cool Cuts chart February 2007

IDJ Magazine

Alternative Route never seem to release a dud and continues on its rich vein of form with a fantastic, piece of instrumental prog house. The original mix marries a funky bassline with lush melodies and a rock guitar lick. Andy Slate’s remix keeps all the good things from the original but ups the tempo a touch and adds some keys in turning it into a trancier affair. A sure-fire success for the dancefloor.

Matt Fiztpatrick

Really loved this… wicked!

Jody Wisternoff

Pretty strong track.

Slok

Nice Prog tune with a classic funky disco electric bass line. All the arrangements are well done and all the sounds fit into the meaning of this production. The original mix is perfect for a warm up set. The Andy Slate remix is better for late nights. Just tested last night!

Luis Bonias

Nice track with a rock touch… the original one is for me.

Andre Solaris

Absolutely amazing. Will be getting strong rotation on my XM Radio show and in the clubs in Chicago. Perfect combo of funk and deep soulful atmospherics. Perfect springtime track.

Wize – Exhibition – Part I – Ledge Music

Wize - Exhibition - Part 1

Like a glam rock fueled missile, comes ‘Exhibition’ from Parisien duo ‘Wize’. Giorgio Moroderesque emotion in bed with the cream of the French touch sound, underlayed by tight beats, mixed with that psychoacoustic mastery only associated with that other pariesien duo, Daft Punk. What can we say, except eargasm, eargasm, eargasm. (source: Dancefrontdoor.co.uk)

Feedbacks

Tony Senghore
‘The DJ DLG mix is awesome! A real heavy and bass driven push-up-bra remix. It works better for me than the original mix and the Manuel Tur remix for the floor response. Very good record. Thanks!’

Paulette (Ministry of Sound Radio/Radio FG)
‘it’s a very fruity, dirty disco filtered thing that has gone straight into my box. The original edit has the edge with a 6/10 I am also impressed by the electro flavoured DLG remix too. Nice one.’

Sharp Boys
‘Loving DLG’s mix – fantastic tune!’

Dani Deahl (Urb Magazine USA)
French band Wize hit upon a niche when they fused the classic French house sound with more current hard disco elements, leading them to remix for some of the genre’s hottest names. “Exhibition” is a perfect illustration of this concoction with a strong chord-driven cornerstone that carries a short, but sweet vocal hook. Manuel Tur churns out a quirky counterpart with multilayered clipped keys while DLG sticks to his signature sound, providing a disco alternate.

Tim Irwin (DJ Magazine) – 3.5/4
Sandwiched between the rather formulatic French filter house of the original and the brash electro styling of Dj DLG’s remix, is a rather interesting interpretation from Germany’s Manuel Tur. Injecting a large dose of hip-swinging funk via a shuffling rhythm track and some great squelchy bass and lead lines, Tur’s mix is what you’d imagine would happen if P-funk keyboardist Bernie Worrell and bass playing cohort Boosty Collins were ever let loose on a house track. Top gear for underground house heads who like their shit a little bit freaky, in other words.

RLP (Radio FG)
“DLG remix will rock any dancefloor on the planet. This track works wonders everytime I play it. A SURE SHOT !!!!”

Jerry Bouthier (DMC Update Magazine) – 5/5
‘Despite Europe going mad for bleepy electro, the French touch is still going. As well as looping and filtering ecstatic disco samples, the Gallic party sound now digests eighties influences as Wize’s original mix showcases here. Even US producers are at it, the DJ DLG mix proposes an in your face re-interpretation that kicks ‘Exhibition’ into glorious anthem status.’

Lewis Dene (Update / DJ Magazine)
‘The original mix is a nice mixing tool (8/10), Manuel Tur’s mix is Ok but kinda misses the point (6/10), and DLG’s mix has got great energy levels – Shalamar never sounded so good! (8/10)

Paul Hughes (Energy FM)
’Being honest, all 3 mixes are well tasty and I’ve played them all in the club and on the radio show. My fave mix is the DJ DLG’s – it goes off big time! A1: 8/10 A2: 8/10 B1: 10/10
