ChicagoTrip Retro Re-Edit.

Written & Produced by Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis 1983

Jam / Lewis produced SOS band hits are notable for popularizing the use of the Roland TR-808 drum machine with its distinctive cow bell sound.

Staying true to the original Extended 12" Version with reworked intro / outro and rerubbed mid section.

Any comments always welcome.

JustBeGood - CTR-ReEdit

Armed with a bank of samples, Edits and an Akai APC40 we take a bit of different direction for Eighties 4 steering away from the soul funk sound and highlighting a whole new plethora of tracks.

Edits and Re-Interpretations from CTR, Duff Disco, Disco Syndicate, Dimitri From Paris, Jean Claude Gavri, Tony John, Peza, Robot 84, Fingerman, Luxxury, Groove Motion, Faciendo, Psychmagik, DJ Agent 86 and the Revenge.Movie Samples from Ghostbusters, Back To The Future, Scarface and The Business.Enjoy The Trip..

ChicagoTrip Retro Re-Edit

A 1991 Mickey Finn Production

Up there in my top 10 house tracks of all time, Mickey Finn delivers the goods with this Bionic Man sampling monster. The original can never be bettered but it always seemed to be a set opener because of the classic beginning taken from the TV series opening credits. In this edit the main body of the track remains but intro  / outro are re-edited plus a central part using the original opening sample.. enjoy

All comments welcome..

Bitin Back - She's Breakin' Up - CTR-ReEdit

Back in the beginning this was the precursor to many of us getting into House music. The whole ELECTRO scene was massive... partnered up with breakin, scratching, turntable mixing the scene clearly signalled the dawn of sampling...So once again armed with a battle worn laptop, the trusted Akai APC40 and an array of samples.. its time for another Adventure..

Many thanks to Chris Dobie for the input on this one..

Four To The Floor - Lost It - CTR-ReEdit

One of my all-time faves and a staggering track, Slumberland was a hot favourite with Sasha and a true Renaissance Mansfield anthem, hard to think this track was released in 1992 and still sounds so fresh today. This edit chops the 'Rhythm Invention Mix' forging a new intro, mid and end section + various overdubs and effects included. Enjoy..

Long Live Progressive House !!!!

Solitaire Gee - Slumberland - CTR-ReEdit

Always a firm fave at Renaissance Mansfield. Originally released as State Of Grace but later renamed Grace (because of the indie band with the same name).  This edit features a more DJ friendly intro and ending that ive used in sets and in my opinion this original mix has ALWAYS been top of the pile (Breeder mix was also rather good).
