We last saw Tash on his own imprint for his collaboration with Magitman entitled 'Volt Afterhours' which was written with the spirit of the hugely popular series of Volt parties in mind. I/5 is certainly one of Tash's most ambitious studio projects to date and with the remixes being supplied by Luis Junior and Nikko Z it looks set to be one of Movements biggest releases to date. The boundless creativity on Tash's original is evident even from the opening moments of the piece. A uniquely quirky bassline sets the incredibly fresh vibe in motion as a nasally synth lead works in unison with the bottom end to create the ultimate groove. We see some unique chords changes and fresh sounds enter the mix as the breakdown approaches. Tash has crafted a real beauty for the drop, a section of breakbeats and rich, heavily textured atmosphere serve as the perfect musical interlude before it all gets stripped away and the quirky groove comes back in for a solid finish. 

The first remix is supplied by one of the most in demand producer's of the moment Luis Junior. The Spanish producer was one of 2010s brightest stars in electronic music. He gained an immense following over the course of the year for his unique and fresh production style that combined melodies, modern day techno sensibilities and an uncanny knack for creating unrelenting, infectious grooves. 'Colache' and 'BG' both for Bedrock and his remix of Cid Inc & Lank's Coronal Mass were 3 of last year's biggest crossover tracks, all which earned support from John Digweed and Hernan Cattaneo. 2011 only saw Luis grow even larger with his remixes of Monaque's 'ID' and Infusion's 'Love and Imitation'. Both tracks earned huge worldwide support and massive chart success on Beatport. For his I/5 remix Luis has delivered a deep, atmospheric monster of a track. An engulfing bassline with immense force sets a fierce tone at the outset. Then Luis' superior sound design skills come to the forefront with wonderful melodic accents, washed out granular sweeps and a hazy warehouse vibe that is completely alluring. Luis' unique sound and attention to detail have never been more on form. Colossal remix! 

The final two interpretations are provided by one of Movement's brightest stars Nikko Z. The Greek producer has had several recent successes on the label. His collaboration with Chris Mozio entitled 'Monotony' received support and heavy play from Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren. Furthermore Nikko's most recent and freshest production 'Oranje' (also for Movement) received both radio and live play from Hernan Cattaneo. Nikko has a crafted a deeply sensual vibe that comes with a very large presence for his I/6 version of Tash's 'I/5'. Heavily panned atmospheres and percussion elements set the killer hypnotic feel at the outset. Some wonderful old school claps, vocal pads, glassy melodic keys and acidic bubblings carry the piece through an amazing thought provoking journey. Nikko's 'Life & Chicken' Remix follows the same structure and arrangement of his I/6 version but with the acid lines left out for a smoother ride to the finish. Two top interpretations from Niklko.
