Premiere: Demi Riquísimo – Mirage Over (Manami Remix)

Music

The Semi Delicious boss invites a bunch of talented friends to rework tracks from the label’s back catalogue.

Today felt like the first time he could see clearly; as if every day that had come before it he’d been living with his eyes shut. There was no telling what had been the catalyst, it seemed to happen almost instantly. Before, the most joyous and exhilarating experiences never moved him, he’s always found ways to pick holes in everything. But now he found beauty in the most mundane things, in seemingly boring situations and dull encounters – after all this time his life could start, the idea that it was all a mirage was finally over.

Semi Delicious boss Demi Riquísimo shared the first volume in his Reconfigured series two years ago – a remix project that invites friends of the label to put their own stamp on tracks from the back catalogue. This time round a fresh batch of artists breathe life into their label favourites, namely Viscera alumni Manami, Holding Hands producer Gallegos, WHP resident Gina Breeze and Tech Support under his Asa Tate alias. There’s something for all dance music lovers, from hypnotic techno and vintage percussive house to tropical-tinged chug and pacy Balearic prog.
