Just over a month after the release of their highly praised album Kiss and Forget, electronic music powerhouse WhoMadeWho is back with a remix of their collaborative track “Heartless” with Kölsch, reimagined by the talented Italian duo Fideles. This marks the first official remix of “Heartless” and continues the band’s streak of high-profile collaborations and accolades.
The Fideles remix of “Heartless” takes a track that blends the styles of WhoMadeWho and Kölsch into an effortlessly beautiful work that creates a calming atmosphere, and livens it up while staying true to its roots. The Italian duo replaces the gentle kick with a punchier, more dynamic beat, infusing the track with their signature grandeur and elevating it to new heights.
Here’s what Fideles had to say about the remix:
“We’ve long admired WMW and Kölsch for their emotive musical journeys. When allowed to remix a track from their album, “Heartless” immediately stood out to us. During a creative session in Ibiza, we found the perfect way to blend their vision of the track with our sound.
The result is a remix that honors the original while bringing our unique touch. We’re also very thrilled with how it’s been received in the industry by our peers and. on the dance floors–it’s a special moment when our remix connects with so many people from different walks of life”
The Fideles remix joins an impressive roster of remixes from ‘Kiss and Forget‘, including works by CamelPhat, Adam Ten, Innellea, Mind Against and Dyzen. WhoMadeWho fans can look forward to more, with an upcoming remix by Alex Wann and an official remix EP on the horizon.
WhoMadeWho‘s recent success extends beyond the studio. The trio clinched the “Best Organic House” award at the 2024 DJ Awards in Ibiza earlier this month, adding to their “Best Live Performer” accolade from the 2024 Beatport Awards in May. These honors, coupled with the release of Kiss and Forget, underscore WhoMadeWho’s unstoppable momentum.
In addition to their musical offerings, WhoMadeWho has unveiled a series of captivating music videos to accompany each track on ‘Kiss and Forget‘. Directed by Berlin-based talent Thomas Kuhn with creative direction by Polina Vinogradova, these visual pieces form a kaleidoscopic journey through time, emotion, and human connection. The videos serve as a unique narrative tapestry, weaving together the album’s themes of nostalgia, eternal youth, and the ephemeral nature of relationships.
