Space
"Magic Fly (Remixes)"

We've compiled a selection of remixes for Space's massive hit "Magic Fly" which originally came out in 1977 on an album of the same name. The track went to number two in the UK singles chart and top 10 in many other European countries. The brain child of French producer JP Iliescuo he assembled a crack band of French session musicians for (at the time was a) a previously unheard cosmic-disco-synth combination. The lead melody came from talented young composer Didier Marouani (also known as Ecama).
The Orb's remix is first on the package, bringing their signature ambient sound to the track with a dreamy soundscape at its core as the original elements of the track drift in and out.
The Greg Wilson and Peza version follows, beefing up the percussion and adding an extra layer of cosmic melodies before label mate Richard Norris takes the spacey groove and oscillates it even further, bringing an eighties tinge to the seventies classic.
Sare Havlicek then extends the track into something longer and more DJ friendly, drawing out elements of the original across eight minutes to create a chugging dropped-tempo workout.
