Now here's the second set of remixes of King Roc's Beautiful But Weird. Again they feature the vocalist Barbara Alcindor, part of French-German #1 pop group Family Affair, whose voice led Phonica to call the last track by King Roc sideproject, Je Suis Differente by Two Armadillos, "easily one of the sexiest pieces of deep house we've heard in a long time".
This time round we've collected the more eclectic of the releases - a wonderfully different disco-y, synth-y version from Clouded Vision with a particularly rousing chorus, the dub of Sasse's earlier version, and King Roc's own jackin' dancefloor take on the track alongside a radio edit for the sync crew. If you missed the first mixes and need them, get in touch...
