Tracklisting:
A. Turtle (Bonobo remix)
B. Turtle (Pilote original)

Mr Cullen AKA Pilote, now with two albums under his belt, continues his meteoric rise in the world of music. With continuous support from XFM's James Hyman, One2One were quick to jump at the chance of using one of Pilote's rarer mixes for their latest TV ad campaign, Talk 100.

'Turtle' is the lead track taken from his ('deliciously musical' Q Mag) debut, 'Antenna', which has been given the remix treatment by Brighton soul mate Bonobo. Managing to rework the chirpy-cheeky original into a more subtle, smooth, yet super chilled out version, 'Turtle' has been snapped up by the guys at Ministry of Sound for their Chillout 2002 compilation, as well as FHM for their Bar Sessions album series. The whole tune is cleverly based around the 'phwee phwoo' whistle.

Having only ever been released on a limited 10" version with Pilote's 'Do It Now Man' album, the Bonobo & original mix see the light of day once again on a 12" that has been well worth the wait.
