Bee Gees 'Love You Inside Out' (Serge Gamesbourg Re - Edit)

Slow Hangover (Disco Tech edit)

I had to stumble upon cover versions by Brooklyn Express and D'Angelo before realising that Eddie Kendricks was the first one to perfom this funk classic. 

In the original version the actual song kicks in straight away, which is not always fun if you're spinnning for the dancefloor.  So my edit comes with a 5 minute build-up. And in the beginning I used a guitar sample from the Brooklyn Express version. Enjoy!

Whisper My Name

Boz Scaggs ‘Lowdown’ (greg wilson edit)

115 bpm

Previously limited vinyl only 2008.

This is a straightforward, no added elements extension of ‘Lowdown’ that I knocked together back in 2004, and which would later be shared on limited vinyl in 2008 as ‘Blue Eyed Boz’, issued on the same 12” as ‘Adriano Italiano’ to launch the GW Ruff Edits series. It’s popped up in a few of my live mixes down the years, and features in the East Village London mix on here from last December.

'Lowdown' was released in the UK 35 years ago, in September 1976. Between January 2006 and September 2007 I compiled a series called Time Capsule for Samurai FM, where, month by month, I revisited the tracks I used to play in the clubs exactly 30 years earlier. It was a real labour of love, for not only did I have to research and often re-source the music included (I had a load of records stolen in 1985, so there were big holes in my collection), I also wrote an accompanying piece every month looking at the records featured, and how my fledgling DJ career was shaping up. 'Lowdown' was a single I used to play at the time in my New Brighton residencies, the Chelsea Reach and the Penny Farthing. Time Capsule covered the period I was at the Chelsea and the Penny, leading up to when I took over at the Golden Guinea, where I’d spend 3 memorable years before embarking on my Wigan / Manchester adventure in the early 80’s. 

I’d hoped to take Time Capsule all the way through 1977, but the workload became too much and I found myself unable to meet the monthly deadlines, so I reluctantly had to stop at Sept 77, with the intention of getting back to it in the future if I ever have sufficient time on my hands. Even if this turns out to be all I ever manage to do, Time Capsule, as I left it 4 years ago, still stands as a snapshot archive from a key moment in dance culture, as the Disco era gained full momentum and the 12” gradually began to take over from the 7” in the affections of British DJ’s.

All the programmes, plus ‘First Impressions’, which inspired the series, can be accessed here:

Here’s what I wrote about ‘Lowdown’ for the Sept 76 Time Capsule:
“Regarded as one of the classic Blue-Eyed Soul singles, 'Lowdown' by Boz Scaggs, despite its popularity on the UK club scene, peaked at a somewhat disappointing position of number 28 on the British chart. By contrast, the single had reached number 3 stateside, with the album it was taken from, 'Silk Degrees', becoming an American classic, which sold more than 5 million copies and spent over 2 years on the chart! Picking up a Grammy for Best Rhythm & Blues song, 'Lowdown' was recorded with a team of session musicians, who would later form the nucleus of the hit band Toto. In the early 60's, Scaggs, who was Ohio born, had left his Texas home to briefly join London's burgeoning R&B scene, returning to record his debut solo album, 'Boz' in 1965. He'd later appear on the first 2 Steve Miller Band LP's, 'Children Of The Future' (1968) and 'Sailor' (1969), before continuing his solo career with a series of albums for Atlantic Records. However, it wasn't until he signed to Columbia that the commercial acclaim, which had previously eluded him, finally came thanks to 'Silk Degrees'.”

Boz Scaggs 'Lowdown' (greg wilson edit)

Hi Music Lovers,

As a Prince fan I have bought many of his records from his official catalogue, but also from his "unofficial" catalogues (Bootlegs, concerts...) Same as many of you, I guess, and we are all sad today after what happened ...
The least that I could do was paying tribute to this Music Master in giving all my heart into working on a revamping of one of my favorite track : "Money Don't Matter 2 Night".
BPM is 112.
I have added my special touch on the Drums, with an intro and outro as well, but wanted to stay not to far from the original.
Special shout to all the Prince lovers !
I would like to offer you the opportunity to download this Rework for free, just go to my Hearthis account here:

Please be so kind to play this rework as much as you can, re share it, and I would be very pleased if you could leave a comment and repost it on Soundcloud !
Many thanks in advance Mates !
Respect, Peace & Music from Paris France

Well well well... Let's Credit This Properly And Give The Props To Whom Truly Deserve It... 

I Found About 2 Weeks Ago This Edit Of The Bee Gees Classic Dropped By Japanese BEATEN SPACE PROBE On Soundcloud, And No Need To Say That This Is A Great Rework, Really Creative And Carefully Made. 

I Just Thought When Listening To It That I Should Do A Recut Version, In Which I Would Focus Strickly On This Crazy Catchy First Part Of The Song, And Make It A Good Warm Up Track For The Dancefloor. 

But Let's Say It Clearly, I Wouldn't Have Had This Idea Of Working On This If I Didn't Have The Chance To Listen To Beaten Space Probe brilliant edit. Props To You Guys!!!
