Debbie Gibson has released her new set of remixes of her single titled ‘One Step Closer‘. To remix a song, any song, can be a risky move. To some people, that’s retouching their memories. Songs become the soundtrack to memories. And to do that to a song such as ‘One Step Closer’ is even riskier. Debbie has millions of fans around the world. It’s made it’s global rounds. It’s ‘sunk in’, so to say. So to do this to that song, multiple times, could be hit or miss.

Fortunately, what we get here are solid re-interpretations of an already solid song. I say ‘re-interpretations’ because, well, these are new songs. Each version lives in it’s own world. If you played these back to back in a club you get one hell of a party. And that’s the point, isn’t it? Each version of ‘One Step Closer’ takes you to that same conclusion and head-space you reached with the original. It just takes different roads. And that is what it’s like to be a mega-talent working with mega-talents.
