26FEB2015: Replaced file with a slightly quieter mix that fits in better with the majority of SoundCloud tracks. Thanks, AJ!

10FEB2015:
A mix that AJ and I are both happy with! Yay! I've been wanting to share this for a while...

Got a chance to remix In The Groves by AJ Evans and Group Of Deviants. This track is a combination of what I came up with plus AJ's mixing and production.

A little something different!

Lyrics:

Do you know the way to the grove?

In your life there is a story
Waiting to be read by those who can read
In your time there is a glory
Waiting to be felt by those who can feel

Do you still feel?
Can you feel at all?

Do you know your way to the grove?

Look inside, now
It's alright now
You've been through worse than this before
Look inside, now
Don't run and hide, now
Don't you go and close any doors

Many doors, many doors, many doors

In my mind there's still a story
Waiting to be completed by me and you
In my time, I've felt the glory
The seeds were planted in everything that we'd do

Do you know the way to the grove?
Do you know your way in the grove?
Do you know your way through the grove?

Look inside, now
It's alright now
You've been through worse than this before
Look inside, now
Don't run and hide, now
Don't you go and close any doors, any doors, any doors

Many doors, many doors, many doors, many doors

Many doors, many doors in the groves

There is a story....

Group Of Deviants - When the Butterflies Have Flown (Edward Cufaude Remix)

Day 6 I am adjusting the mix.

My remix was supposed to be a compliment to and/or a re-imagining of the original release.
I used the following original stems:
All my vocal tracks, all of CJ's guitar tracks, AJ Bass, AJ Synth, AJ Strings, the Snare, Hi Hats, Crash cymbals, Toms, and additional percussion.

Bear in mind, I am not a remixer LOL

Take Me as I Am (The AJ's In Love Remix)

INTERLUDE - 'Lifted'
Love has lifted my heart, has lifted my mind
Take me
Love has lifted my heart, has lifted my mind
Take me
Love has lifted my heart, has lifted my mind
Take me

Spending Sunday morning
Looking forward to Tuesday afternoon
We march through the daily grind
Heading to our doom

CHORUS
Take me as I am
I am just a man
Bewildered and confused just like you
Take me as I am
I want to be more than a man
On the edge of greatness looking for
Something better to do

Dulldrummed Friday evening with a beer
and my T.V.
No longer in tuned with my senses or my feelings
No. That isn't me

I know out there some place hiding
Is a future meant for me
Still i live inside this darkened room 
Wondering what will be

INTERLUDE II
I am wondering what will be
I am wondering what will be
I am wondering what will be
Love has lifted my heart, has lifted my mind
Take me
Love has lifted my heart, has lifted my mind
Take me
Love has lifted my heart, has lifted my mind
Take me

BRIDGE - 'In the Groves'
Look inside now
It's alright now
You've been through worse than this before
Look inside now
Don't dun and hide now
Don't you go and close any doors
Look inside now
Look inside now, and 

CHORUS
Take me as I am
I am just a man
Bewildered and confused just like you
Take me as I am
I want to be more than a man
On the edge of greatness looking for
Something better to do
Something better than you
Something better than you
There's always something
There's always someone 
and I know they're gonna come along and 
Take me as I am
I am just a man
Bewildered and confused just like you
Take me as I am
I want to be more than a man
On the edge of greatness looking for
Something better to do
Woah woah woah
Take me
Open your heart and take me
Open up your world and take me
Don't ever break me
No, no
Take me

(Fanfare end)

AJ Evans has been a number of things throughout the years, but with all of them he has always been an artist. Through many adversities that he attributes to 'having to pay my dues with the whole suffering of the artist thing', he has maintained a history of releasing popular music directly to the public via the Internet as far back as 1995 when he decided his art was to be heard, even if it meant bypassing labels and just putting it out there for the world to enjoy. This, in turn, got him worldwide exposure and being requested to sign release forms so his music could be played on the radio in several European countries.

AJ Evans and John Phetteplace have been writing songs and playing music together and solo since 1989. Their first band, Blue Vision, was considered one of the most marketable acts amongst the unknown bands in Philly once there studio demo tapes were stolen and made public.

Evans conceived Group of Deviants following the success of his CD "I May Be a Stoner (But, I Ain't Fucking Stupid!)' Maxi-Disc featuring Anthony Kremski (who billed himself as Shaggs). Evans knew there would be more work with Anthony and other people and created the Group of Deviants umbrella to cover any collaborative work so no one was guest appearing on an AJ Evans track.

Group of Deviants has been an increasing popular brand of music due to very savvy p.r. on behalf of Evans and very popular graphic artwork that adorns their releases which have consistently provided their audiences with top-notched produced music from across the genres.

The latest in the p.r. campaign to get Group of Deviants to an even wider audience is a series of remix contests. They now have DJ's in the Ukraine, Canada and NYC exposed, remixing and finding rotation for Group of Deviants music.

We have just spoken with Exit 39 Productions, NYC about management which consists of an outlet that will carry our CD's and Vinyl release. It is a very successful major clothing chain that caters to a trendy crowd but, more details once it is cement.

Group of Deviants has continued to work through some major adversities and has continued to provide some of the best music for their genres and we are hoping to spread our brand of music our this summer to fill the hearts and imaginations of the people on the dance floors.

With AJ Evans serving as producer, audio engineer, graphic artist, owner and manager of SINaMANIAC Music Releases, a label created to protect his music, lyricist, composer, multi-instrumentalist, video producer and editing and John's talents as songwriter, guitarist, bassist, video production and make-up artist, Group of Deviants is a self contained powerhouse of full production talent, we just need the help to keep the dream alive and reach a larger audience.
