Budai & Vic
Just Don't Know

Hungary's finest house label I Love Deep Records is set to release a brand new digital single package. The summer vibed Just Don't Know is coming from labelowners Budai & Vic and carrying 4 great remixes including a deepy one from Berliner Lukas Greenberg and a techy one from Jay Tripwire.

Just Don't Know is taking back us to the funky sounded eighties. The male vocal sample gives a unique mood for the whole track. The goove is massive and numb and the musical coverage is very similar to the old synth-pop sounds dressed in a more modern coat.

Berlin based producer Lukas Greenberg made a deeper mix of the original. He used the samples in a very unique way creating a floorfiller but still very cathy version. Nicolas Jakoby a.k.a. Lukas Greenberg definitely is no newcomer in the electronic music scene. He started his career in the early 90ies as a hip hop dj, become 1994 a techno & house dj and played at famous venues like the tresor, 90Grad and KitKat. Quite a lot residencies and years of dance floor experience brought him to own productions which he started on an Atari Mega 2. He founded his label "Synphon Records" and received remix requests from Peter Schilling amongst others. It's easy to see that after more than ten years in the business his musical background is based on a broad variety of influences and styles – so is his music and what else than Plastic City could be the perfect platform for the height of his creativity. Last year he had his first appearance at "Play Plastic City" and his debut EP "Behind Doors" earlier this year drew attention to this fantastic musician, producer and DJ.

Canadian house hero Jay Tripwire made a dark mooded, tribalistic tech-house mix from Just Don't Know. Jay is a house DJ and record producer from Canada. He has toured internationally in clubs such as Fabric, Heaven, and the Mercury Lounge. His singles have been released on many independent labels including Nervous Records and Nordic Trax. He is also a member of the duo "The Clones" with Chicago-based producer Mazi. In 2007, Canadian label Nordic Trax released Tripwire's album, Gemini Soul, which featured Tripwire's combination of deep house and downtempo.

Andy Slate half Hungarian half German DJ and producer went for a more minimalistic way. His remix of Just Don't Know is operating with nice chords and very nice breaks. Since he remembers, Andy was always surrounded by music. Born and raised in Germany, Andy had his first contact with 2 turntables and a mixer in 1983. Couple years later when house music came to Europe, he got infected by the beats and rhythms. His technotive productions are played by the biggest djs around the globe. These days Andy is working a lot in the studio doing new tracks and remixes. Since 2003 Andy started to work with Tim Taylor (Missile Records London) on several remix projects reaching from 70s disco rare grooves up to ruff techno beats. To realize this, Tim Taylor moved for almost one year to Budapest. In the meantime, Andy has setup a recordingstudio and a high-professional masteringstudio in Budapest. In 2005 Andy has launched 2 new labelprojects called spacegypsie reflecting more deep´n´fresh techhouse sound and dizkotronik bringing some special re-edited & remixed 70s disco and funk classics flavoured with jackin beats.

Young Hungarian talent Bigflash already dd some remixes for I Love Deep Records. This time he comes again with his well-know jackin' house style. Perfect for warm up or even for a cool down.

Just Don't Know and all its remixes easily can be heard on the dancefloors during this summer.
