Previously featured on the Unabomber ‘Electric Chair’ compilation and then turned into a French pop classic by Keedz (which, by the way, sounded remarkably like their French counterparts Justice), this gospel track originally released in 1985 gets a spacey remix by Hot Coins, courtesy of Tirk.

Well let’s not get ahead of ourselves, this is the world of nu-disco and to say this is a ‘remix’ would be pushing the boat out a bit, this is nothing more than a ‘re-edit’ of the original, with some added beats, bass and cosmic breakdowns.

This soulful little number is catchier than tuberculosis and will have you singing along like the Von Trapp family, yet this 2009 re-edit has added extra pulse making it more DJ- friendly and more importantly, extra nu-disco DJ friendly.

So next time you’re off down to Shoreditch in your tight skinny jeans and Tony & Guy haircut, you can safely throw this one in with the rest of the Todd Terje re-edits and pump away a set of cosmic, soulful bliss because all in all, ‘That’s what the good Lord wants’.
