the things you can find on discogs is amazing and this combination left my jaw on the ground, so what is it might you ask? well it's french goa-trance producers blue planet corporation (gabriel masurel) & jaïa (yannis kamarinos) remixing mylène farmer for the second time. it shouldn't make sense but that is such a pedestrian approach and i think most heads was reluctant to it because of both parties statures in their fields.
farmer is one of the best selling artists in the french-speaking world and blue planet corporation and jaïa are two of the most well regarded goa trance producers. masurel had prior to taking on "c'est une belle journée" only done one remix prior and that was of amanite fx & prana's "black rain" and kamarinos had done four remixes prior. it still was a weird choice but their remix of that was quite good and to be honest, there was also a tom novy remix that did much better on dancefloors.
people who are expecting full on goa versions are to be disappointed in both remixes of farmer's songs, they sound more like tilt than total eclipse. however they are well produced pieces of trance with farmers vocals and laurent boutonnat's melodies and chords taken into great use. it's melodic but doesn't go over the board and has a throbbing bassline the changes within the track are subtle. epic trance done right.
