Delhi 2 Dublin is an incredible act. They are most acclaimed for their energetic live performances since the group’s birth in 2006, and less recognized for their recorded releases. The frustration of being purely a successful live act may have been part of the reason that D2D gave their 2010 release Planet Electrified to ten of their favourite producers to remix. Planet Electrified features some of the best D2D material such as “Tommy,” “The Happy Track,” “S.O.S.,” and “Harmonizin,” which are all staples of their live appearances. But those who worry about tinkering with the one-of-a-kind Punjabi-Celtic sound, fear not: the apple does not fall far from the tree when it comes to the remixed version, and that isn’t so bad. By starting with such complex and exciting creations redeveloping the genius is a very risky endeavour for any producer, but the changes that were made subtly make D2D just a squeeze closer to club tracks. The answer to the tough challenge of new art comes best from Poirier Soca Chutney’s “The Answer” and Sub Swara’s “Laughing Buddha.” These cuts use heavy repetition of the of D2D sounds in producing a completely new song that clearly possesses D2D roots, but are also fearless in the face of experimentation. Aside from the remixes, D2D also added a new song to this album, “Give It Away,” which kicks off Planet Electrified: Remixes with all the wild excitement of what is expected from Delhi 2 Dublin.
