Premiere: Millie Jackson - We Got To Hit It Off (OPOLOPO Deeper Remix) [Spring Revisited]

OPOLOPO helps launch the Spring Revisited project, which invites highly respected house music producers to remix and re-edit classic tracks from New York's Spring Records.

Spring Records operated through the 1970's, releasing many seminal soul, funk and disco tracks that have left their mark on today's music scene.

This release sees OPOLOPO rework Millie Jackson's classic disco track, "We Got to Hit It Off." The original is famed for its soulful vocal performance and captivating lyrics about female empowerment. Its sweeping strings and funky bassline also add to its upbeat vibe and feel-good energy.

OPOLOPO is a Swedish disco maestro and house music aficionado, he is a highly skilled producer who has the Midas touch when it comes to remixing music. He has done official remixes for artists such as Gregory Porter, Lisa Shaw, Barbara Tucker, and many other iconic vocalists. So, he was the perfect choice to remix Millie Jackson's "We Got to Hit It Off," and it's in a similar vein to the original music OPOLOPO has released through record labels such as Z Records, Reel People Music, and Local Talk.

Talking about his contribution to the Sprint Revisited project, OPOLOPO said: "It was an absolute honour and a tremendous treat to remix a legendary R&B icon like Millie Jackson. We Got To Hit It Off is a standout example of her powerful vocals and ability to bring both passion and playfulness to her music. In my main mix, I tried to be respectful of the original, staying with the disco vibes while injecting a bit of funk and boogie. On the deeper mix, I aimed for a later time slot on the dance floor, when things are a bit more stripped down, sweaty and raw."

OPOLOPO takes a more synthesised approach with his remix, which centres around a new bassline that lays a funky foundation for the original's vocal, strings and guitar licks. It's a sassy rework made with modern dance floors in mind, and he has also done a 'Deeper Remix' with lush pads and beefed-up percussion.

This release breathes new life into a timeless classic, while staying true to the mood and message of the original.

Lyrics - 

If you hadn't asked 
Leave my answer the same 
Leo's mine 
If you hadn't asked her 
Staining my whole tongue red 

It's you I ask now 
Stirring my indulgent sentiment 
Don't, don't, fall, 
You so might as well 
Be un-done 
Lay low 
You're staining my whole tongue red 

Dying all my colours red 
How'd you get this out, she said you won't 
Fallen far a clear mile 
Bound for all the sun to spoil 

If you hadn't asked 
Made the stuff 
Made it so fine 
Leo's mine 
If you hadn't asked her 
Staining my whole tongue red 

It's you I ask now 
Stirring my indulgent sentiment 
Don't, don't, stare
You so might as well 
Be un-done 
Lay low 
You're staining my whole tongue red 

Dying all my colours red 
How'd you get this out, she said you won't 
Fallen far a clear mile 
Bound for all the sun to spoil
