The 24 tracks of the album/dj mix “M” Megamix from I:Cube is a mind blowing listening experience but from a dj point of view, it’s kind of frustrating because the 2 minutes 30 seconds average lenght of each track doesn’t allow them to get played easily in a club environment. So the djs out there can now rejoice because Versatile have them covered with the release on digital and vinyl of dj friendly 12′ versions of tracks taken from the album, starting with the “In Alpha EP“.

Gilb’R on I:Cube new album “M” Megamix : “At last a new album, 8 years after the previous one… It will be out in May 2012 and it’s simply mind blowing by its form (a dj mix of 24 original tracks) and by its content (effortlessly retracing 20 years of dance music). I:Cube is the living proof that you can reinvent yourself after 15 years of continously making music.”

“I:Cube married the concepts of album and DJ set, expertly arranging and mixing 24 tracks so diverse in nature.” XLR8R

“With a live feel to match its immediacy, the “M” Megamix is a triumphant statement of what a dance music album should feel like” Juno Plus

“It has been quite  a long process but we are finally ready to introduce the new project from Alex Egan, the man behind Astronomer and numerous other aliases. The first part of the release, ‘Geschmacklos’, somehow defines the approach of Marketing Music: electronic sounding like a New-Wave-Post-Disco band, something close to Bot’ox for instance… Cosmo Vitelli was then the obvious remixer’s choice, and surely he doesn’t disappoint : his mix is already being championed by a lot of our favorite djs !” Tim Paris
