Pattern Recognition decided to release KOTO as an official entry in the FORCE catalog as a result of this quality remix. Focal has been moving along at FORCE with some stunning songs throughout 2005 and was given the opportunity to remix Koto as a result. While it was a safe bet from the start FOCAL had the chops to do right with the KOTO Remix, no one could have guessed entirely the gem he’s made for us all! Focal proves once again that he’s on the leading edge of new American DnB producers. The KOTO Remix takes a healthy look at the deeper side of things and brings the instantly recognizable KOTO “Hook”, Squelchy bassline and rolling amens of the original into hardstepping territory not unlike what Hidden Agenda might probably have chosen. This is to say, rolled out, strong, no gimmicks and purposeful! A great 4th entry for FOCAL on FORCE Recordings!
