Enigmatic electronic artist The Forgotten takes on Circle Of Dust‘s ‘Telltale Crime’ in this latest Electro Industrial remix.

Forging new life to the industrial metal track originally released in 1992, The Forgotten adds their blend of Electro and EDM. A gritty vocal performance, with defiant and provocative lyrics as relevant now as they were when the song first released, slides between heavy guitars and distorted synthesizers. The result is an fierce EDM remix that retains the challenging spirit of the original while morphing into something completely new.

Circle of Dust made its triumphant return in 2016 after Klayton regained control of the entire Circle of Dust catalog, re-releasing each album (Self-Titled, Brainchild, Metamorphosis, Disengage, and beloved side-project Argyle Park) with remastered audio and completely re-imagined art. Later the same year, with the project fully resurrected, the new album Machines of Our Disgrace was released followed by a feature-length documentary, Full Circle: The Birth, Death & Rebirth of Circle of Dust, and full-length remix album alt_Machines in 2018.

The original single was aggressive industrial metal track originally released in 1994 and later remastered. Kaixo brings new life fusing dance, electro, and drum and bass elements with distorted vocals and maintaining the industrial edge of the original. The result is a turbulent collision of the past and present giving a glimpse of a dark future.

“This is the third one in my collection of Circle of Dust remixes, after ‘Nothing Sacred’ and ‘Neurachem,’ explains Kaixo. “I had an absolute blast transforming the dark and sinister Industrial Metal original into a high-energy Drum & Bass track.”

‘Nothing Sacred’ embodies the early era of Klayton‘s Circle of Dust project, delivering stark percussion and a gritty atmosphere guided by the artist’s stoic vocal delivery. The 25th Anniversary Edition adds sonic depth and nuance to the recording for a fresh take on a timeless track.

Klayton says: “The day I got the first sampler I ever owned was the day I created Nothing Sacred. Experimenting with the sampler, coming up with a few sounds ( including lots of drums from the Ensoniq Floppy Disks that came with it), and then playing with the built-in sequencer led to the main progression that runs through the entire song. I’m grateful that 25 years later I could readdress the mix and give you a version of the song that sounds a lot closer to what I originally intended. Enjoy!”
