Way back in 1999, when Boris Dlugosch remixed Moloko’s “Sing It Back,” the German DJ single-handedly turned it into a #1 club smash. But the label had no budget to pay him for his work. Instead, the duo’s frontwoman, Róisín Murphy, returned the favor by co-writing “Never Enough” with Dlugosch, singing on the track as well.

Originally released in 2001, now “Never Enough” has been updated for 2020 with a robust new package featuring remixes by Jesse Rose, Ian Pooley, Manuel Tur, Paskal & Urban Absolutes, and Drop Out Orchestra. But it’s this tasty new turn from Dlugosch and longtime Peppermint Jam cohort Mousse T. that I’ve got on repeat.

Dlugosch and Murphy surely had no idea just how prescient a title “Never Enough” would prove, as they’ve also come together over a decade later for a totally new team-up, “Look Around You.”

Maxxi Soundystem, Chopstick & Johnjoh, and Ralk all contribute top-shelf remixes of the deep house track, but Dlugosch’s original mix of “Look Around You” is worth a very long look. It’s sex on (the digital equivalent of) wax.

There’s a music video for “Look Around You,” if you care to take a peek. But unlike the clip for “Never Enough,” Murphy makes no appearance on screen this time around.
