Iio - Kiss You

Made Records

Over the years there have been many dance groups or dance acts that have been supported by the masses, but none more so then Iio. They are one of the few that have been able to cater to both the underground and mainstream community alike. It seems just like yesterday that their debut single "Rapture" caught the world by storm since many people still play it in there sets. But every year since then as the Winter Music Conference in March approaches that we are greeted with a new single from Iio. There was mixed feeling about there previous two singles with "Runaway" and "Smooth" but this single is very similar to "At The End" which enjoyed plenty of success and I think will help make up anyone's mind that may be on the fence with this single. One of the reasons Iio have been so successful with there music is there diverse choice of remixes as it caters to just about every genre of dance music. On the CD Single it's the Bailey Single Edit that gets the radio treatment and the Bailey Club Remix takes on a middle eastern tribal flavor that reminds me a little bit of "Desert Rose" by Sting a few years back. The Orkan & Teemu Remix stars off very dark and underground but once it breaks down and the vocals come in it turns very light.

This twist is surely going to grab a lot of people's attention (...And don't call me Shirley). George Acosta has made a nice comeback lately and turns in a nice trance mix as well as a very melodic breaks remix. Of course Iio never forgets the fans out there that just want to chill. That's why they also added the Ambient Remix as they have always done in the past. Having a Chill mix in my book always makes it a winner. And finally they've included the Kiss You Album Version to make the circle complete. With plenty more left from their album expect more from Iio. Check back next March!
