Listen: Jungle – ‘Heavy, California’ (Gerd Janson MPC Translation remix)

Jungle’s excellent ‘Heavy, California‘ has received a polished tech-laden remix courtesy of German DJ/producer Gerd Janson.

Initially lifted off Jungle’s sophomore record, ‘For Ever’, released back in September. Janson’s new edit takes things into an uplifting-tech dancefloor environment. Whereas the original slickly delivers for the party, this new rework (dubbed the MPC Translation mix) slots firmly to the post-3am raves.
