Klaxons — Atlantis to Interzone
Kitsuné Music 039 · 2006 four-track 12-inch · Nightmoves / Digitalism / Dave P & Adam Sparkles remixes
Original 2006 Kitsuné 12-inch edition of Klaxons' 'Atlantis to Interzone', catalogue KITSUNE039, coupling the original with Nightmoves, Digitalism and Dave P / Adam Sparkles remixes. The song had already appeared as a Merok 7-inch earlier in 2006, so this is not its first release; its archival interest lies instead in the way Kitsuné recast one of the defining early Klaxons tracks as a club-format object. The release sits at the exact crossover point between British indie, rave revivalism and continental electro that contemporary press grouped under the disputed 'new rave' label, while the all-over illustrated Kitsuné sleeve makes the record equally legible as part of the label's music-and-design culture.

Edition details
Original 2006 Kitsuné 12-inch remix edition, catalogue 039, barcode 3661311001017. Original version produced and mixed by Ant “Bonkers” Chapman and Klaxons. Digitalism credited for remix and additional production on B1. This is not the song's first physical issue: the earlier Merok 7-inch appeared in June 2006.
Condition note
Sleeve shows light corner/edge and handling wear but remains clean and structurally sound in the supplied photographs. Vinyl shows visible light hairlines/scuffs and dust under strong reflected light; no obvious deep gouge is visible. Playback has not been tested, so no audio grade is claimed.
Audio
A1 Atlantis to Interzone (Original); A2 Atlantis to Interzone (Nightmoves Remix); B1 Atlantis to Interzone (Digitalism's Klix Klax R-R-Remix); B2 Atlantis to Interzone (Dave P and Adam Sparkles' Festival Remix Extended Break)
