Mark E: E-Versions #4 (Level 42, Time Bandits) Vinyl 12″

Mark E does it again! For number 4 in his acclaimed E-Version series, the UK DJ/producer sets his sights on a pair of balearic gems and updates them to move modern dance floors. Disco heads should all be familiar with Level 42’s tried and true Loft classic “Star Child,” which gets an extra bump up to anthem status with some subtle edits and beefed up drums. On the flip, Time Bandits’ often slept-on “I’m Specialized In You” gets a similar stretched-out, wide vibe treatment.
