RCRDLBL Pick Of The Week Transatlantic Wild Geese love, direct from NY Downtown Records Blog RCRDLBL
"The Wild Geese retrofit the malleable “Do the Right Thing” with a menu of classic dance-club moves: a sturdy synth-clap beat that’d mix in or out of anything, a bit of cowbell and a stove full of boiling electronics, all rising and falling and hissing out clouds of digital steam".
"Wild Geese’s take on ‘Do The Right Thing’ is terrific, a slow and pulsing house jam that wouldn’t sound out of place on a DFA 12-inch or Soulwax’s Nite Versions. The original’s heart-on-sleeve sentimentality has been almost entirely shorn away, leaving disembodied chants of “the right thing” to be dragged along by a rippling triplet melody and a sense of carnal desire that lands just on the right side of sleazy”.
Recorded on the 1st June 2009 direct from the Diesel Umusic HQ in Dalston, London. Thanks to Eleanor and Emma and the gang for letting us drink all of the beers! x

"Wild Geese. They did that 12" on Flashback a while back, and everyone loved it. Now they're back remixing the new Friendly Fires 12", and I think everyone will love this too. Their refix is a chunky acidic Chicago-tinted house offering, reminiscent of the late 80s blossoming of early UK house and the whole warehouse scene. The track has a really cavernous sound just made to be played loud, and loops up the catchy FF bass hook, dropping in the vocal as well. Oh, and did I mention the MASSIVE piano breakdown in the middle? Fantastic stuff!"
