FEATER, VILJA LARJOS — Time Million (remixes)

Feater & Vilja Larjos – Time Million (Remixes) arrives on Running Back as catalogue RBFEATERRMX1, a 12-inch vinyl that reinterprets the original “Time Millionaire” from the Socialo Blanco album through the lenses of two heavyweight remixers. The release leans into minimal house and disco territory, offering a concise but potent double-sided statement that bridges outsider pop sensibility with club-floor rigor. Within Running Back’s 2026 output, this EP shares its release day with Edward’s “Running Back Mastermix: Edward – Edits (LP 3x12”)” (RBEDWARDLP) and the companion remix disc “Pepe Bradock Bonus Bit & Villalobos Dubs” (RBFEATERRMX2). Earlier in the year the label issued Roman Flügel’s “Mega EP” (RB105) and Gibson Brothers’ “Oooh What A Life, Heaven” (RBSSS1), situating the Feater & Vilja Larjos record amid a series of genre-spanning, forward-thinking dance projects. Side A opens with “Pèpè’s Hardclipping Remix”. Here Pépé Bradock treats Vilja Larjos’s vocal fragments with a meticulous, idiosyncratic approach, sculpting a peak-time groove that balances stripped-back minimalism with moments of heightened tension. The remix’s structure encourages a gradual build, making it suitable for early-set layering or a subtle transition into more kinetic moments. Side B delivers “Villalobos Remix”, a take that bears Ricardo Villalobos’s signature long-form, dub-inflected aesthetic. The track stretches the original vocal into a hypnotic loop, allowing the rhythm to breathe and evolve. Its spacious arrangement offers DJs a versatile tool for deep-house moments, where the ebb and flow of the dub can be manipulated for extended mixes. Both sides showcase the collaborative chemistry between Feater’s production ethos and Vilja Larjos’s vocal presence, filtered through the distinct lenses of two masters of minimal and disco-inflected house. While the original “Time Million” appeared on Running Back in 2019, these remixes recontextualise the material for contemporary sets, highlighting the timeless quality of the source composition. From a collector’s standpoint, the EP is a concise addition to any minimal house or disco-oriented crate. The two remixes provide contrasting moods—Bradock’s tighter, peak-time focus versus Villalobos’s sprawling dub landscape—making the record valuable for DJs seeking both immediate impact and deeper, atmospheric passages. Its placement within Running Back’s 2026 catalogue underscores the label’s commitment to curating diverse reinterpretations of its back-catalogue. The release is pressed as a 12-inch vinyl, matching the format of Feater’s earlier “Obsolescence” (RBINC011, 2025) and the original “Time Million” (RBFEATERRMX3, 2019). The record’s physical presence complements its musical intent, offering the tactile experience prized by vinyl enthusiasts.
