Side 1. Dark Soldier (Critical Impact VIP remix)Side 2. Dark Soldier (Alcemist VIP remix)

First unveiled on dubplate 25 years ago, 'The Dark Soldier' has long been one of Ray Keith's most celebrated tunes - a game-changing D&B classic that also lent its name to the DJ/producer's fine 2021 memoir. Here it gets a new set of celebratory remixes to tie in with Keith's recent career retrospective box set. Critical Impact handles the A-side, adding a little more rhythmic complexity and squally electronic melodies while retaining Keith's warped, brain-melting bassline and creepy chords. The flipside Alcamist remix steps things up further, with a more jazz-flecked post-jungle rhythm underpinning an even wilder mutation of the bassline, echoing vocal snippets and slivers of foreboding melody. Two fine updates of a must-have classic.
