Symposium

UK born but now US-based, John Graham’s follows up his debut single (Roll The Dice) with the second single “Something New” from his new album “Cold Sun”. Johns sound is a contemporary indie-rock  electronic crossover with heaps of swagger. “Something New” melds influences such as the Stone Roses, Kasabian, The Cure, Depeche Mode with the sweeping electronic soundscapes.  

First up is the bombastic original, it mixes a rock under beat with thunderous electronic production, dirty distorted basses and wailing guitars.  Add in a dose of sweeping cinematic strings from Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and that all adds up to one big sound.

Next in the package is a real treat for all Electronic Music fans.  Record-label mates Hybrid deliver their first remix in over 2 years.   Hybrid are now busy scoring big budget Hollywood films, their sound is still right on the money however.  They transmute the original into an breakbeat fest with darting rhythms, crunching synths, new vocals and bags of cinematic scope.  

To round off the package we take a trip to Japan where 06R gets busy robotic electro beats, big sweeping strings and pounding basslines.   The package also includes a Hybrid instrumental mix as the last track.
 
John Graham's debut solo album “Cold Sun” is available on Distinctive Records.

Also check out Johns first single ‘Roll the Dice’ and the amazing video – not suitable for those with a fear of heights, it blends off kilter performance footage with a montage of adrenaline pumping, high risk stunts.

DISN236 02 - John Graham - Something New (Hybrid Remix) CLIP

Over the years we've amassed quite a substantial collection of remixes and re-workings and thought it was high time we curated a collection to follow in the footsteps of 'Remix & Additional Production By...' which was released back in 2000. These are all personal favourites and many are never commercially available.

We've chosen not to make these downloadable as that would be unfair on the artists we've remixed so there's an iTunes link to most tracks if you should want to buy one. Unfortunately this mix isn't available to buy at this time.

Lyrics:

Stop this moment to live
you were crouched down
on the ground
hiding your head
shame on your back
you climbed down from
your comfort bed

Now lie down
on this cold earth
and dirty your hands
till they are clean

Close down yourself
break down your wealth
none of these jewels
do you own
give them back
to where they were found
you stole your own shame
then broke your own games

Now lie down
on this cold earth
and dirty your hands
till they're clean
