Mono - High Life FLAC download

This second HIGH LIFE single from Mono also goes the speed garage route, but with a darker and more sinister mix from the Natural Born Chillers. Only echoing fragments of the original vocal remains; it seems a more interesting interpretation than the more dancefloor-friendly 187 Lockdown mix on the first single. Two mixes of “Silicone” also appear, but these are obviously redundant for those who own the actual SILICONE single.

Remember speed garage? Well, with the first of Mono’s HIGH LIFE singles, there’s no way to forget. 187 Lockdown put a bass-heavy house dub on the track, with sufficiently hands-in-the-air results, while Lowfinger and Next Century deliver odd mixes, both of them acid rock tinged. But the one to fast forward to is Herbert’s mix, a deep and delicate version that demonstrates that when Matthew Herbert is on, he is on.
