As epic in its synth work as it is in jungle breaks, earth-shattering basslines and unruly drops, ‘Blinded By The Lights 23’ holds its own as a stand-alone Mixtress & Pete Cannon original, embracing the hazy atmosphere of Skinner’s emotive sonics and raising them tenfold. Worked in too are warped samples of Mike Skinner’s iconic prose, featured in warps between brightly lit granular synths as the track does what it says on the tin: shine and dazzle as a dancefloor belter .
On the track, Mixtress says: “This track was made in between digging through Pete’s record collection, chatting breeze and snacking on baked goods from the shop across the road. It represents us perfectly: a whimsical and high-energy take on a timeless classic, that gets both the old and new heads feeling nostalgic.”
The track has already made a considerable dent in the TikTok & YouTube airwaves too, racking up over 200k plays and saves in addition to a surplus of demanding track ID requests way before its official release.
