ROCKY DAWUNI - Freefall (Jeremy Sole Dub Version ft. Ticklah)

Most honored to even have the chance to put my spin on this beautiful piece of love by two of my all-time favorites. Sincerely hope yall dig it. I played all the guitar work, drums sampled from Shawn Lee, and grateful for my man Reed Mathis, coming through in a rush and laying bass on it night before the deadline for submissions.
Blessyall!

UPDATE: The winners of the DJ Shadow remix contest have been announced! I'm not one of them, but it was great to hear the ones that shadow picked. So glad Archive's Waltz version was in the ranks, played that on my KCRW show on Wednesday. I'm not bummed one bit, everyone who Shadow picked killed it in their own way, and since I only set out to make what I consider to be a beautiful song... I feel successful in that. BLESSYALL for voting, and all the kind words. Now that it's over I can give it away for free. Enjoy.

My KCRW radio show is every Wednesday night 12-3am, so for the past 5 years I've never been able to go to Low End Theory. Gaslamp Will and I said enough is enough, and planned it so I can take the night off and rock w/ some old friends that I never get to play with, and feel the energy of Low End Theory.

...I was super hyped that some other friends, Mark de Clive-Lowe and Jonti were both gonna be performing as well, and THEN, once I got there I heard word that JAMES BLAKE was yet another special unannounced guest. Damn I'm a master at being in the right place at the right time.

So obviously this is a distorted recording and I was pushing the system hard since I didn't often go full buggout like this back in those days, but if ever a crunchy recording would work, it's one of crunchy tunes like these.

SOLA ROSA - Love Alone (Jeremy Sole "Dub Alone" mix)

This year, the legendary "High Priestess of Soul", Ms NINA SIMONE, would be 80 years old. A woman who changed the social and political fabric of America with her fearless songs, her yearning voice, and her raw, worn soul.

Perhaps what has always moved me about Nina's body of work is that her recordings, even her fame in itself, were all auxiliary - just a means to support her continuing education and aspirations of becoming a classical pianist. Her songs had their own meanings and subjects of course, but by reflecting on her life's work as a whole, you can plot the points between these songs like a constellation. They were rungs on the ladder of her ever-climbing journey. You can hear in each recording a completely pure reflection of how she was feeling - passionate, strong, devoted, frisky, suspicious, proud, or just downright tired.

THIS FRIDAY NIGHT, JULY 5TH 2013, Los Angeles gathers for a sure-to-be-epic evening of free music and revelry around this particularly authentic high priestess. Join us all at GRAND PERFORMANCES for "YOUNG, GIFTED, and NINA", featuring LA's deepest musical luminaries from the Jazz, Soul, Blues, Poetry and recording world as we come together for this majestic tribute.

This event is produced with unmatched dedication by JONATHAN RUDNICK, and the visionary music direction of DEXTER STORY,  the men behind last year's also epic "PEACE GO WITH YOU, GIL" tribute to Gil Scott-Heron. Yours truly will be opening the evening with an invocation DJ set, and speaking throughout the show.

AS A GESTURE TO CHRISTEN THIS MOMENTOUS OCCASION, I'VE AGREED TO MAKE MY REMIX OF NINA SIMONE'S "BE MY HUSBAND" A FREE DOWNLOAD FOR ALL TO HAVE. I HOPE YOU ENJOY AND SPREAD THE SOUNDS, SPREAD THE WORD, AND WE'LL SEE YOU FRIDAY NIGHT.

Be My Husband (Jeremy Sole Remix)

P18 - "La Verdolaga (Jeremy Sole remix)'

My plan was to not remix, but re-play the song in a full live setting, as if in 1975 Bowie recorded the original and then flew to Brooklyn (or even Jamaica) to cut another take with my players. Everything was recorded 100% analog to tape. All on equipment that was available before 1975. My approach was to take influence of the Jamaican musicians (and recording styles) of the mid-seventies, and their infatuation with American Soul music. If you dig it, that would be great. Knowing that BOWIE digs it, I’m over the moon.
