Genre/Influences: Electro-Pop.

Format: Digital, CD.

Background/Info: “Speaking Of A Devil” is a song taken from the fourth full length album “Revolution From Below”, released earlier this year by the project, German Beyond Obsession. They exposed this song to other artists for a real ‘remix festival’!

Content: The tracklist of the CD is different from the digital one. The CD takes off with the “Album Version” reminding us of the Depeche Mode influence. It’s a melodic and danceable song. You also will find the demo song at the end of the EP. In between “Speaking Of A Evil” has been remixed by 9 artists. Rob Dust, Ruined Conflict, Hartung & Schleinitz, Thomas Gaarn (Lights Of Euphoria), Ten after Dawn, Hidden Souls, Rroyce, Beyond Border and Missing In Stars remixed the original edit with their own touch and influences.

+ + + :  “Speaking Of A Devil” is a real good choice as EP-title song; it simply is one of the best tracks from the band’s last album. It’s a melodic Electro-Pop song clearly evoking bands such as Depeche Mode and Erasure. It especially inspired artists such as Rob Dust, Hidden Souls (Electro-Pop formation from Argentina) and especially Ruined Conflict to achieve some real great mixes. The remix of Hidden Souls is a harder one. I also noticed a cool Techno inspired remix by Hartung & Schleintiz, which is not exactly the most familiar project from the list of remixers.

– – – : I never have been a huge fan of EP’s with an endless number of remixes from just one single song. Among the nine remixes you for sure will find some favorites, but 9 is maybe a bit too much.

Conclusion: If you’re a fan of Beyond Obsession, this EP will for sure find its place among your collection. I would advise listening to the album from the other music lovers.

Best songs: “Speaking Of A Devil – Album Version”, “Speaking Of A Devil – Ruined Conflict Remix”, “Speaking Of A Devil – Hidden Souls Remix”, “Speaking Of A Devil – Rob Dust’s 20 -> Remix”.

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast.

Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
