Cinéma (Remixes)

One year after the release of Astral 2000, Virginie B unveils two remixes of Cinéma, one of the album's most energetic songs. One was produced by DJ and musician Yuki B (Yocto, Jesuslesfilles), while the other is by Noo Jii, an electronic artist based in Montreal.

Yuki B's remix features a slowed-down tempo of 120 BPM and a simplified 4/4 beat that’s perfect for the dancefloor. Its hard-hitting groove and dark bassline immerse the listener in the atmosphere of a sweaty, crowded club from the late 80s, contrasting with the futuristic vibe of the original version.

Noo Jii's remix has a more modern and abstract sound, which builds on the eccentricity of the original by amplifying it; its unconventional structure is in line with the experimental subgenres that have marked electronic music in recent years, notably UK bass and deconstructed club. The remix is also sort of a tribute to the late SOPHIE, who spearheaded this style.
