THE ALOOF / ASHLEY BEEDLE
One Night Stand is one of The Aloof’s best tracks from their mid period (1996). But I had rather forgotten about this particular mix, in favour of the 7″ version. Here, Ashley Beedle creates a 13 minute mix which remains low key throughout. The first half is driven by epic yet simultaneously understated strings and the second half by a slow samba rhythm.
The Aloof – One Night Stand (The Long Night And The Samba (Ashley Beedle Remix))
Ashley Beadle’s finest moment, and that’s saying something, in my opinion.
