After scoring a surprise hit in 2006's red-hot 7"" funk market with their cover of ""C.R.E.A.M.,"" El Michels Affair quickly turned around another smash 7"" double-single of re-imagined takes of the Wu-Tang Clan. ""Duel of the Iron Mics"" sees the hypnotic piano hook of the ""Liquid Swords""-classic elevated to intriguing heights with dramatic strings and Catch the blast of a hype version on the B-side, where ""Bring Da Ruckus"" is brought to life in imaginative ways not hinted at on the bulletproof original. The raw sample stabs and sub-bass of the stripped-down Wu-Tang stunner are replaced with mind-bending bass notes, and the re-played organ hook turned way up. Both of these tracks would eventually feature prominently on El Michels Affair's landmark LP ""Enter the 37th Chamber,"" celebrating it's 15th Anniversary in 2024.
