GLIS' frontman Shaun Frandsen indeed brings us something entirely unique in today's dark scene. A straight re-cut concept for which he teamed up with Krischan Wesenberg (known for being the man behind the music of ROTERSAND) who worked from the fully mastered original versions of the 15 selected tracks. He rearranged the songs, used some parts from one song and cuts from others, adding overdubs to the re-edits, new beat elements, additional sequences, effects and filtering; basically making every track different from the original recordings.

Like ROTERSAND's mastermind explains it himself: “The “re-works“ I did on the GLIS tracks wouldn't have been termed a “remix“ in today's dancefloor culture.

Often you will find the vocal line on another track…”. “A Shot and a Bassline” is GLIS' 5th album.
