marly - you never know (red carpet remix)

this was something that i knew of when i picked it up as it had been somewhat of a hit a few years and a mate of mine used to play it in his sets. the original was done by singer ditte-marie lyfeldt (aka marly) and the morten lambertsen & jacob johanssen (aka morjac). my mate loved "morjac's theme" and played a few of their tracks in their sets and the original versions of "you never know" was aurally similar.

for the single there was a quite a few remixes included for the original danish release by fellow danes filur and michael jensen (who made atleast three under diffrent names). it was licensed off to the uk on all around the world but also on a belgian label sugar sugar who both commissioned some versions. on the latter one is where patrick bruyndonx aka dén hetrix comes in with a red carpet remix.

it actually plays right into the type of sound that bruyndonx & raffaele brescia had done with their clubhit "alright", which itself is was like a piano houser much like kings of tomorrow's "finally" and layo & bushwacka!'s "love story" and a few others. bruyndonx  does a really classy job for the remix and keeps the piano hook but shifts the focus a bit on the track. the notion that there is live bass that was recorded for the track is a bit tucked away in morjac's housey versions but here it's given more emphasis. the vocals have been effected and weave together as a layer with the rest of the track.

as much as i like the original or morjac's house version i think bruyndonx outdid them with this stunning remix.
