Keep The Fire Burning (Marsupials Re - Edit) ***FREE DOWNLOAD***

Massive tribute in the intro and break to DJ Sneak. The first DJ Sneak track I ever heard and bought sampled this lovely Gamble & Huff Jacksons tune (although at the time I was very naive and had no idea where the sample came from).

With this mix I've tried to use the full song and also pay a bit of a tribute to the DJ Sneak version  which I encourage everyone to go and buy:

I only recently found where Sneak had sampled the percussion from and grabbed a larger sample for the final minutes of this mix (it sounded wrong without it)...discover it for yourselves!


The Jacksons - Show You The Way To Go (Butch le Butch House Gangsta Remix)

Moloko | Sing It Back (Andrew Emil Dreamix)

For this Dreamix, I put together a classic from an all-time favorite artist, Róisín Murphy. 

Written and performed by Murphy and English bassist Mark Brydon—from Chakk and Cloud Nine—this song was recorded under the name Moloko. 

Released as a single in 1999 off Moloko's second album, I Am Not a Doctor, “Sing It Back” peaked at #4 in the UK after it was given the remix treatment from the hit factory of Boris Dlugosch at Peppermint Jam. 

Inspired during her time in New York City, Murphy later co-wrote and appeared on Boris Dlugosch's "Never Enough" single as a trade for his remix work that took this song to new heights. 

I remade this one with the standard orchestrations of late 90s house music, including live electric bass, guitar, and a mixture of Fender Rhodes, electric pianos and Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 pads, and @eventideaudio modulation and reverberation. 

Enjoy!

Andrew Emil // Change Request 

A preeminent artist of Chicago's 3rd wave, Andrew Emil is one of house music’s most staunch stalwarts. A concert-trained percussionist since age 11, he earned a chair in his native Kansas City Symphony before eventually moving to Chicago. 

As a traditional musician, Andrew Emil has worked as a keyboardist, arranger, and an orchestrator on recording sessions and productions, cutting his teeth at the former Chicago Trax Recording Studios. 

Credited on over 200+ recordings, his composition and studio productions have ranged from concert works and sound design to film scoring stages and hundreds of releases of electronic music productions. 

After a life in live music performance, from orchestra percussion sections to punk rock ensembles, he crafted a reputation for House Music productions in Chicago under his own name, as well as Broadway & Wilson, and Uptown Tones. 

One of the earlier innovators of the “Jackin House” genre under the Broadway & Wilson moniker with Jeff Bloom, Andrew is never content to stay in one place or style of musical thought for very long. 

He is the only recording artist to do production work simultaneously for Derrick Carter’s Classic Music Company, Mark Farina’s Great Lakes Audio, Gene Farris’ Farris Wheel Recordings, and four-time GRAMMY nominee Steve “Silk” Hurley’s S&S Records.

A string of double-digit singles for prominent labels, including remixes for artists such as Common, Kanye West, Little Louie Vega, Jamie Principle, Steve "Silk" Hurley, Iz & Diz, Fast Eddie, Shalamar, Roland Clark, David Morales, Colette, Amp Fiddler, JT Donaldson, and Gene Farris, to name a few. 

2012 saw the emergence of his epithet, Change Request, with the Change Theory EP on four play music. This new persona allowed the freedom to explore hybrids of mid-tempo live instrument focused jazz-dance-fusion. 

Following this release was “After All” on Seasons Recordings, with another single thereafter featuring house music icon, Chez Damier, “I Wanna Go Back”, including a remarkable rework from Glenn Underground, on Glenview Records. 

The ever-growing collection of songs and musical dialogue eventually led to the conceptual album series from Change Request. Each full-length effort containing a completely separate story and scored via its own unique incidental subtext. 

Emil created AstraVox Music with the award-winning Los Angeles-based composer, Mr. Nathaniel, as a home for his increasing catalog of incidental dramatic musical compositions.
