Teenage Mutants returns to Stil vor Talent with the aid of Kruse & Nuernberg to showcase the classicistic stroke of genius ‘Love Ain’t Free’. Here, instantly recognisable house-signifiers pay homage to the 90s New Jersey sound that is currently experiencing a revival. While a pumping garage Beat adds sufficient swing, a vivid chord arrangement lifts the mood to ecstasy. The icing on the cake comes in the form of soulful diva-vocals by Isis Salem that will catapult you straight to the heaving dance-floor of the infamous Zanzibar.

The remixes of ‘Love Ain’t Free’ paint two contrasting pictures. While Jiggler beds the original’s vocals within subtly mesmerising strings and a bass-line driven groove to create a slightly subdued vibe, Kry Wolf deliver a tough, almost psychedelic UK reinterpretation that focuses on chopped, pitched-down vocals and alien bleeps. Last but not least, ‘Miss You’ convinces as a dreamy garage track and marks the end of an excellent EP. Love ain’t free!
