Lostlojic - Space Bus (DMX Krew Remix)

  • An appropriately out-there electro remix of a Ukrainian artist to watch.

  • For tragic reasons, Ukraine's thriving and creative electronic music scene is more in the spotlight than ever (Kyiv particularly has become home to some of the most exciting stuff anywhere). Lostlojic is one of my favorite Ukrainian discoveries of the past couple years, with a glossy, approachable sound that blends IDM, electro and techno. The original "Space Bus," taken from his new Distant Star EP, is an ambling, atmospheric cut, but in the hands of UK legend DMX Krew it becomes a wonky roller with a bassline that won't quit. It's funky but still floaty, and you come for the classic electro groove and stay for the vamping rave piano, which pushes it just shy of boiling over. When a long-time mainstay meets a new producer in the middle like this, the results are usually fantastic, and "Space Bus (DMX Krew Remix)" is no exception.
