Following his debut on Planet E Communications in 2023, New Jersey-born and-based house music legend Junior Sanchez now teams up with longtime friend, label boss and techno icon Carl Craig for a brand new Remix EP. Art-O-Fact (Detroit Remix) injects the futuristic sound of Carl's hometown. The EP also includes a "Beatless" mix and a "Bass" mix, which split the new "Detroit Mix" directly in half, with one focused on melody and the other on rhythm. Sanchez initially brought Art-O-Fact to Planet E with Detroit in mind. "I loved so many records by Carl Craig, Derrick May, Kevin Saunderson, and Juan Atkins," he says. "I let my inspiration guide me, and I thought about that city -- what it meant to me and what techno meant to my heart." To fully connect the dots, Carl Craig has hopped on the remix, reinforcing the eclectic synth work with a heavy new groove, a gritty bass line, and subtle, shadowy synth melodies. The result is a fortified connection between two scenes and eras that sonically toes the line.
