Paul Kalkbrenner is one of Germany’s most beloved artists, known for his music on labels including BPitch and Diynamic, plus his leading role in the feature film Berlin Calling.

He doesn’t often do remixes, just three since 2018 in fact. 2021 has now delivered two of them, a rarity for a calendar year, and Paul’s second, following his remix of NTO’s Invisible, is a special one, as he remixes Techno Monkey, the famed 2016 release of his wife, Simina Grigoriu.

This is the first time Paul has collaborated publically with his wife, and it kicks off a three-volume series of remixes of Simina’s Techno Monkey that will roll out in 2021 on her Kuukou Records label.

Almost exactly five years to the day since her critically acclaimed Techno Monkey EP, Simina Grigoriu is now breathing fresh life into one of the most iconic records in her expansive career that has seen her release tracks on labels ranging from Pig&Dan’s Elevate to POPOF’s FORM Music.

Paul Kalkbrenner’s remix embodies the grand techno sound that he has made his own over the last twenty-plus years, it’s melodic, emotive and propulsive minutes, offering a unique reinterpretation of Techno Monkey, that keeps the track sounding as fresh today as it did on its release.
