Following the release of ‘Happy Song’, the first single from forthcoming album ‘Break The Wall’, MF Robots reveal the full extended version of the song alongside remixes from Kenny Dope, Kaidi Tatham and Daz-I-Kue.

It’s only right that Kenny Dope should be the first producer to remix Jan Kincaid and Dawn Joseph’s new MF Robots project, considering the trio’s shared musical history. Kenny Dope began reworking Jan’s ‘Brand New Heavies’ material back in the early 90’s as one half of Masters At Work, helping the band reach club-land over and over again with a series of iconic remixes, recorded during the golden era of MAW’s output.

It’s no surprise then that there’s more than a hint of that special, Latin sunshine-infused mid-90’s House sound in Kenny’s rework of Happy Song, which showcases Dawn’s impeccable vocals over an infectious rhythm track and ultra-funky horn stabs. An instrumental version of Kenny’s mix is also included for the House purists, as well as the full, extended original version of Happy Song, packed with tight musicianship and more than its fair share of great grooves.

Pioneers of the UK Broken Beat movement and contributors to its most emblematic group, Bugz In The Attic, it seems almost inconceivable that Kaidi Tatham & Daz-I-Kue have never actually worked on a remix together before. As strange as it may sound, it’s true, and their powerhouse rework of ‘Happy Song’ is most definitely worth the wait.

About MF Robots:

Meeting in 2013 while recording and performing with one of the UK’s most commercially successful Acid Jazz bands, legendary UK drummer Jan Kincaid and vocalist Dawn Joseph discovered immediate musical chemistry and began writing songs together right away. They soon left the band to concentrate on their own work, starting MF Robots (Music For Robots) and releasing an eponymous debut in 2018. The album was so well received that the duo soon morphed into a band as they found themselves in-demand at venues and festivals all over Europe.

Forthcoming long player ‘Break The Wall’ represents a new benchmark for Jan and Dawn, reflecting the MF Robots project coalescing and maturing while fine-tuning their material, both on the road and in the studio.

Happy Song Remixes

MF Robots - Happy Song (Kaidi Tatham & Daz-I-Kue Remix)

Next up in the series is a Chicago Stepper-influenced remix of Jay-Z's "Can't Knock the Hustle." 

I've spent the Summer immersed in vinyl, getting the Miyagi Records project off the ground. And along the way I've discovered or have been put up on, a ton of music! This remix is based on The Stylistics quiet storm killer "Hurry Up This Way Again" which you'll recognize as sampled on Jay-Z's "Politics As Usual." I'd heard the Stylistics song waaay back in the day but didn't put 2 and 2 together. The homie Twelve Gage came through the shop awhile back and reintroduced me to this gem and I had it on repeat for days afterward. It didn't take long for the remix idea to come about. All I really wanted was to make a Stepper out of Jigga and continue my "Reasonable Saturday Night" series somehow. Comes with the instrumental which kinda works on it's own as a Stylistics flip. 

On a more personal note, this remix isn't just a clever mashup of song titles but it's more so what my 2020 mindset has become. Losing all DJ gigs, performance work, and my marketing company due to the pandemic made me reassess what I want from life and how I plan to get there. I have a tendency to move too fast, and this year has been a blessing in disguise. A much needed slow down, in order to get some bigger moves in play. I'm sure everyone has their thoughts about Jay-Z but there's no denying his success, and the scope and longevity of that success. I once heard for "Reasonable Doubt" he used his advance to purchase copies of the record so as to give SoundScan numbers a bump, thus securing a better deal on his next album. Whether that's myth or reality, it's a G move and the perfect example of investing and reinvesting in yourself. 

I hope you're all safe and healthy out there, this ride isn't over yet!
