Fela Kuti: "No Possible (Joystick Jay Vulgar Distractions Edit)"

Joystick Jay's debut is also the first release from Disco Delicious, an Australian disco blog and now vinyl singles imprint, who are releasing three remixes from the Norwegian producer. In "No Possible," Jay takes a 17 minute long Fela Kuti song, and compresses it to an under eight-minute original. While Kuti's songs typically last in excess of half an hour and are mostly instrumental, this edit splices in new vocals and a strong chorus from other jams, accentuating the original's endless groove with a different bass line and a demure guitar loop. --Dwight Pavlovic, Get Off The Coast

MP3: Fela Kuti: "No Possible (Joystick Jay Vulgar Distractions Edit)"

As of now, Joystick Jay's 12" is sold out at most distributors, but a quick google search should yield some options and you can download all the tracks, among others, at his soundcloud page
