Jesus Pablo & Robot Needs Oil ft Novac – No Regrets

Liverpool's Jesus Pablo teams up with Manchester-based Polish producer Greg Kobe, AKA Robot Needs Oil, for this single on veteran US label i! Records.

In its Original form, No Regrets sports a male vocal that sits somewhere between 'indie-ish' and old-time crooners like Charles Aznavour or Maurice Chevalier. Musically, it's a floaty, laidback kind of piece not a million miles from the kind of ethereal soundscapes conjured by (eg) Trentemøller.

The Left Minded Remix is a tad housier while Cesar Coronado's rub fuses influences from progressive house and nu/cosmic disco, but it's the Bubba Remix that's doing it best for me – an unhurried chugger for the afterhours joints, with plenty of fat squelching bass and considerably less of the vocal.

Something of a departure from JP, this, but at least you can't accuse him of getting stuck in a rut…

Out: This week
