Intro (25th Anniversary)

Description

25 years ago, "Intro" opened the door to French Touch. From its very first notes, it still resonates as an undeniable masterpiece. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Intro, an absolute dance music classic by Alan Braxe, an anniversary EP will be released on March 20th as a limited edition 12” vinyl. Built around the cult sample from The Jets' "Crush On You" and enhanced by Fred Falke's iconic and sinuous bassline, Intro has established itself as a pillar of French Touch. This re-release includes the original version, recently brought back into the spotlight during the closing ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games, as well as two unreleased remixes: a raw and radical reinterpretation by Alan Braxe, and a cosmic disco remix tailored for the dancefloor by Fred Falke. More than a re-release, this output marks the first collaboration between Alan Braxe and Fred Falke in over 20 years, and is part of Braxe's highly anticipated return to the forefront of the scene, recently celebrated with "UFO," his collaboration with Phoenix and DJ Falcon, notably featured in the game EA Sports FC 26 and in the opening credits of Quotidien. “Our favorite dance track of all time” Justice “A museum-worthy, life-changing classic” Calvin Harris “One of the greatest basslines in history” The Guardian “A timeless track” Mixmag “French filtered house of the highest order” Resident Advisor “An absolute classic” The Avalanches “A total classic” Erol Alkan
