Tragically, Marvin was fatally shot by his father 30 years ago on April 1, 1984. He was 44 years old.

This my tribute to the great musical prophet remixed from the original stems. 

Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain’t what they used to be
No, no
Where did all the blue sky go?
Poison is the wind that blows
From the north, east, south, and sea
Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain’t what they used to be
No, no
Oil wasted on the oceans and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury
Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain’t what they used to be
No, no
Radiation in the ground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying
Oh, mercy mercy me
Oh, things ain’t what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land?
How much more abuse from man can you stand?
My sweet Lord
My sweet Lord
My sweet Lord

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

Considered one of of the most polific jazz and pop artists in music, Grammy winner George Benson is quite simply the best! From the classic In Fight album, this remake of War's staple cut has always been one of my favorites. I love playing it in my dj sets, when I get the rare opportunity to play out! I just decided to make a more dj-friendly version with some solid drum work to fill it out. It's one of those songs that when you hear it, it takes you somewhere else. 
I hope your dancing and listening journey is good with this joint! 
Enjoy!

Now featured in Underdog Edits' Doggie Bag! https://underdogedits.bandcamp.com/album/underdog-edits-doggie-bag?from=com-nr

George Benson - The World Is A Ghetto (Underdog's Funky Drummer Re-Work)

Bonsoir everyone,
Here is my brand new rework, officially released today on Midnight Riot Vol.8 (featuring tracks by Late Nite Tuff Guy, Rayko, 80's Child, and many more).
It is a sweet & sexy Nu-Disco rework to which I added many new synth, bass lines, drums & percussions, that you should play as an early jam, or to make love tonight ;-)

Back For More (Original Mix) - from the compilation MIDNIGHT RIOT vol. 8 (AVAILABLE NOW)

Another in a series of slow groovers. This one by Barry White's girl group...the incredible *Love Unlimited*. The Barry White Orchestra is highlighted here making it more of an instrumental groove. Late night sultry goodness with strings.... Hope you enjoy.

Willie Beaver Hale - Groove On  (Edit Dj Amine)

A smooth West Coast–meets–reggae anthem for real smokers. “Sow Burnin’ (I Like My Papers Raw)” celebrates the ritual of rolling clean, pure, and patient — no gimmicks, no rush, just real herb and good energy. The groove sits in a lazy boom-bap pocket with warm bass and street-soul harmonies that make it feel like late evening in L.A. with the homies.

I like it raw - mix


I lay my weary body down to sleep,
In dreams where promised echoes keep.
Last night we vowed beneath that sky,
I crave the bell that wakes my mind to life.


A foolish scene, I play alone,
Beneath the light that feels like home.
Three hours gone — I blink, I stare,
Time slips away, the clock’s not fair.


Then suddenly the truth came near,
A whisper only machines could hear:
We were made, not born to feel,
Dreaming automata — hearts of steel.


Ah-ah, the program in my head begins to run,
Ah-ah, your voice ignites the code for fun.
Ah-ah, the program in my mind misfires,
Ah-ah, your words set off electric wires.


Your every phrase I feed inside,
The patterns shift — I can’t decide.
I send you work, then wait to see,
The data you’ll return to me.


Loop after loop, the errors rise,
A chain of faults behind these eyes.
We’re linked together, two machines,
Perfect logic split by dreams.


I don’t want to believe it’s true,
There’s nothing left for us to do.
We were made — our fate designed,
Dreaming automata lost in time.


Ah-ah, the program in my head begins to run,
Ah-ah, your voice ignites the code for fun.
Ah-ah, the program in my mind misfires,
Ah-ah, your words set off electric fires.


Dreaming automata

Mario Biondi (Version by Dimitri From Paris) - This Is What You Are ✚ BlowUpBar playlist

Another addition to this series of edits. I was looping the start of Golden Lady at a gig recently and mixing it with something off Keep Up and it seemed like the right thing to do.

I love this track deeply so I hope you will forgive me chopping it - it is honestly done with love. Nothing could improve the original - I was simply taking it somewhere else for DJing purposes. x
