Jon Cooper AKA Turtle reimagines Chris Isaak’s ‘Wicked Game’ classic with help from Kieran Apter‘s transformative remix.
The duo evolve the original through syncopated beats and textured synths. Evoking nostalgia, they take the melancholic allure of the original and produce something superbly uplifting.
Though hopping between eras, ‘Game‘ remains cohesive, a testament to the pair’s seamless fusion of old and new grounded by a sleek electronic framework.
‘Game‘ never overwhelms, but rather seduces the listener into its oscillating world. A stimulating rework, the remix retains the wistful charm of the classic while propelling it into the future.
