Free Download: Everything but the Girl - Driving (Inchange Remix)

We still hold our hopes that one day there will be a new EBTG album. However next year it'll be 15 (!) years since the last and so far final one, the club masterpiece Temperamental. The odds are at least in our favour as Ben and Tracey are married and have collaborated musically as late as last year. Their 1990 song Driving has always been a personal favourite of ours and it still sounds outstanding. The original production and later Todd Terry remix are very much children of the 90's with those slightly plastic sounds... This bootleg from Russian producer Michael Soldatkin a.k.a Inchange lends a modern twist and a very compelling downtempo sound that is perfect and we love. The melancholic yet optimistic nature of the song really shines here and we cannot stop listening. The sentiment rings true to us hearing it while typing these words. Sometimes the person you love the most can't be with you even if you have a strong bond, but if you're lucky they have an open heart and are just a phone call and drive away.
