Definition:Music brought you Josh Butler's brilliant 'Sideways Acid' EP, showing us that the House producer knows exactly what he's doing. Now, we're back with remixes.
First up is none other than Kris Wadsworth's 'Strange Intuition' remix of 'Sideways Acid', putting a dark spin on it. Deep and heavy bass with his brand of vocal treatment under a siren-like pad creating loads of deep-night energy to get dance floors sweating.
Next up is Frag Maddin taking the original further and putting another dose of grit into the already very acid track. He knows the roots of the genre and uses them to the track's advantage and adding another level of energy.
Lastly, Definition's very own remix. Stripping the track down to its essentials, the remix captures the retro spirit finely while keeping it bare bones acid house.

Josh Butler makes an appearance on Definition with his delightfully retro 'Sideways Acid' EP. Opening the 3 track EP is the title track, a rich, thick throwback to the days of Acid House sure to get any dance floor moving in no time.
Next, we've got 'Educate', a straight house percussion with a warm rhythmic chord thrown over it. It's relaxed enough to listen to at home, but contains enough energy to be played in the club.
Lastly, 'What I Want' starts us off with a nice and heavy beat before building up to a playful bass line and wandering vocal cuts that sit nicely in the background. All in all, Josh Butler shows us a beautiful example of modern House done right.

Josh Butler remembers: "I wasn't planning on releasing this track, but Darius rang me one day and said he'd dropped it at Watergate, Berlin, and the label owner of Definition:Music ran up to him asking what it was. He emailed me the next day and really wanted to sign it, so why not."
