Following their recent run of remixes collected on DeLorean 666 Remixes, German dark‑electro mavericks Extize return with a bold new offering — a seductive, sweat‑drenched reinterpretation of Type O Negative’s cult anthem “I Don’t Wanna Be Me”.
Rather than leaning on nostalgia, Extize plunge straight into the track’s brooding core and resurrect it as a feral club weapon, driven by pounding electro beats, grimy basslines and their unmistakable dirt‑E‑tronic signature.
Melancholy collides with rave euphoria. Dark romance meets the heat of the dancefloor. And Peter Steele’s immortal presence intertwines with Extize’s futuristic electro chaos.
This is far more than a cover — it is a love letter to one of goth’s most iconic bands, rebuilt for clubs, festivals and those sleepless, black‑clad nights where the strobe lights never quite stop. The original track appeared in 2003 on Type O Negative’s sixth studio album Life Is Killing Me, and now steps into a new era with a pulse made for the modern underground.
Extize will also bring this reimagined classic to the stage throughout the year — make sure to check their upcoming live dates. Link
