We’re proud to present a brand new six track 12″ featuring club blends and refixes from The Heatwave, plus contributions from Sinden (Kiss FM), Ghislain Poirier (Ninja Tune) and DJ C (Mashit). This is the first in a series of club-oriented remix records from The Heatwave and our DJ/producer friends in the UK and across the pond.
Eve’s smash hit Tambourine is given the distinctive Heatwave posse cut treatment, with vocals from The Heatwave’s Rubi Dan and Beenie Man, Collie Buddz and Lexxus. Two more Heatwave refixes feature Busy Signal and Mavado’s Badman Place blended with Justin Timberlake’s My Love and up-and-coming London soul singer Valentina over the classic Night Nurse aka Doctor’s Darling reggae riddim.
DJ Donna Summer strikes again with this “fun” party mashup of All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow. Well, it’s actually a club-style remix, rather than a mashup in the strict sense of the word. Perhaps we should change the name of this series, but rather than dwell on that, we present:
Starkey recently dropped an exclusive DJ mix for XLR8R Magazine’s podcast series. It’s chock full o’ new and exciting sonic-flavor-crystals, and includes my remix of Ghislain Poirier’s Blazin‘. The Stark-bot then went on to create his own remix of Blazin‘ which I’ll share with you now:
I started out last week’s journey to my old stomping grounds, partying with my peeps at the Beat Research halloween party where Flack, Wayne, and DJ RNDM threw down hard. RNDM did a VJ set using the Ms. Pinky vinyl DJ system to do live music-video mashups. If you’re having any trouble visualizing what I mean, you’re in luck. Robotkid was in the house documenting the festivities (Flickr pics), and now RNDM’s entire set is immortalized:
RNDM and Robotkid also happen to work at Harmonix, the company that designed the popular Guitar Hero video game, and is about to unleash its latest creation, Rock Band. Robotkid was kind enough to invite me over to Harmonix headquarters so I could get a sneak-preview of the game before it’s released on Txgving day. And man, was it fun! I’m really not much of a gamer, and have never played Guitar Hero but I’ve heard a lot of hype so I was excited to see what this is all about.
Ghislain Poirier’s new album on Ninja Tune — No Ground Under — has just been released in Canada and will come out in the U.S. in early ‘08. The first single from the album is Blazin’ which features ragga vocalist Face-T and has remixes by The Bug and yours truly.
I’ve taken this opportunity to make a second remix — a mashup if you will — that I’d like to share with y’all:
You can purchase the tracks on the single from JunoDownload, Dancetracks Digital, and Digital-Tunes among others. I haven’t seen the 12-inch vinyl yet but it should be floating around out there soon too. The full No Ground Under album is also available in download from from Dancetracks Digital.
OMG! You don’t know what you’re in for folks. Chrissy Murderbot has just dropped this ridonculous club-house-garage refix of the B-52s classic party anthem, Love Shack and it’s just too hot not to set loose right away:
While we’re on the Pasta Masta tip (see Pasta Masta Al Dente Vol. 1 DJ Mix) I thought I’d point y’all to his serotonin-inducing mashup of the Pixies Where Is My Mind with some killer vocals by U.K. toaster Rodney P:
Very excited to rock some experimental party music @ the old stomping grounds, Beat Research, Cambridge, MA next Monday! http://ow.ly/2exIyTwitter ->2010/07/21
