Direct Me

Direct Me (Extended Mix)

This month's freebie is another one of my funky reboots of an oldie - this time it's the absolutely wonderful Till You Take My Love by Harvey Mason. I've got huge love for this track and play it regularly, but it's very short and I really don't like the key change, so it ends up being even shorter. So I've fixed all that and given it a little spruce up with some beefier bass, crispy percussion and judicious use of echo. It's funky, free, a gift from me!

808 State ‘Pacific State’ (greg wilson electric chair edit)

130 bpm

Never previously shared.

Madchester anthem from 1989, which, along with ‘WFL’ by the Happy Mondays, ‘Voodoo Ray’ by A Guy Called Gerald and ‘Fools Gold’ by the Stone Roses, encapsulates the time when the rainy city was at the epicentre of the dance universe.

Twenty years later I included it as the closing track on my Essential Mix (http://soundcloud.com/gregwilson/essential-mix-greg-wilson-mix-for-bbc-radio-1), and, as with the opening track, the Dimitri From Paris edit of ‘Down To Love Town’ by The Originals, it features Jesse Jackson’s invocation from the 1972 Wattstax festival (which had previously been used to such great effect by Andrew Weatherall in his remix of ‘Come Together’ by Primal Scream).

However, I originally put this together not for the Essential Mix, but to open my appearance at the Electric Chair Last Supper on December 29th 2007. A number of previous guests had been invited to play for half an hour each, as the decision had been made to close this Manchester institution whilst it was still at the height of its popularity. As things worked out, I was the final guest to deejay at this cherished club night - only the residents played after me. I wanted to pay my respects in a proper manner, evoking the spirit of Manchester past, back through the halcyon late 80’s days of The Haçienda to my own time there in ’83, and at Legend beforehand, via a handful of track selections that reflected the spirit of this great music city, for which the Electric Chair, soon to be no more, had written a further chapter. You can stream / download the mix here: http://soundcloud.com/gregwilson/electric-chair-last-supper-29

The purpose of this edit was purely to extend the intro of the ‘Pacific 707’ version to suitably build into Jesse Jackson's poignant words before the beats kick in, whilst adding some subtle ambience to add to the overall atmospheric of this wonderful track, which always struck me as a ‘Stranger On The Shore’ for the Rave generation (the evocative 1961 single by clarinettist Acker Bilk, the first British recording to reach #1 in the USA).

----------
There are not many soulful house tunes coming out these days that don’t sound dated but music is about evolution and pushing boundaries, keeping it modern yet not forgetting the roots, and that’s exactly what Italian house music industry leader Federico Scavo & legendary US diva vocalist Barbara Tucker have accomplished with their standout collaboration ‘Live Your Life’. 
‘Live Your Life’ encapsulates the heritage and longevity of a timeless classic as well as the energy and the sound of future house music, achieving the status of a contemporary, sonically stunning vocal anthem, that serves as a reminder to the new generation that a good song you can sing to will make most people dance.
You will only need to hear the opening few bars of this extraordinarily catchy track to know it is going to be a huge record across both dancefloor audiences and pop savvy ears.
Federico & Barbara again have hits on their hands.

Federico Scavo & Barbara Tucker - Live Your Life [OUT NOW]

Gat Decor - Passion - Original Mix

Hitting the music press headlines recently was news of a second Floorplan album.  Now M-Plant delivers a first taste of this highly anticipated release with two tracks from the album, ‘Music’ and ‘Tell You No Lie’.

Floorplan is already well known as Robert Hood’s house, disco, funk and gospel outlet, which this year evolves into a family affair with co-production alongside his daughter, Lyric.  ‘Victorious’ will be the second Floorplan album and follow-up to 2013’s ‘Paradise’ which spawned ‘Let’s Ride, ‘Baby Baby’ and the massive ‘Never Grow Old’.

Set to replicate the success of ‘Paradise’, ‘Victorious’ will be released in June.  To precede it, the single released at the end of April is comprised of the bumping house groove of ‘Music’ (which received it’s first global airing on B.Traits’ BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra show in February) and the disco rotations of ‘Tell You No Lie’. 

Both tracks are exceptionally infectious, with tough beats, glorious vocal reprises and sure not to disappoint.

Miami bomb here!



Finding the time in between working with David Penn and ATFC, releasing for Toolroom and Skint, remixing Fatboy Slim and Yolanda Be Cool and guesting at Space Miami, The Cube Guys are back with ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody’, a Track that’s been a key point in their DJ sets over the last year and set to be the killer tune at Winter Music Conference this year.

Just the one track but that’s all you need as Luca & Roberto rework Whitney Houston’s 1987 huge international hit ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody’ into a sing along dancefloor masterpiece with a sonically stunning production which runs for 7:00 of absolute fun and energy. Barbara Tucker gives one of her best vocal performances ever with an essential new tune that will appeal to pretty much all DJs in the Dance spectrum.

It’s only a matter of time before it hits radio status and damn it will sound refreshing and give us a sense of where House music is going in the future with the roots of its beginning firmly intact. Massive!

And it’s not a tragic coincidence you are receiving this today, ‘I Wanna Dance With Somebody’ is The Cube Guys tribute to the one-year anniversary of Whitney’s untimely passing. “We love this song, it makes you wanna dance and open your heart at the same time” say Luca & Roberto: “We have done this record and closed all our sets with it last year, this is still relentlessy requested in our club land and have now decided to give it to DJs all around the world... Because you will always dance with somebody, Whitney!”

Out March 25th on Beatport!

THE CUBE GUYS & BARBARA TUCKER 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' - OUT NOW on BEATPORT!

Barbara Tucker - I Get Lifted (Valpy Bootleg / Remix)

The Cube Guys & Barbara Tucker - I Wanna Dance With Somebody (The Cube Guys Mix)

Drawing influence from his love of the early 2000's Deep Tech-House scene and twisting it with todays more familiar feel of Dub, Minimal, Deeper edged Techno, Valpy manipulates sounds into what he feels is right for the darker clubs & dance floors, creating a sound that does not follow suit, bending a few 'rules' along the way...

Using his many Clubbing experiences over the years in the UK, Ibiza, Amsterdam & beyond, Valpy has developed a passion for raw emotion filled techno, often challenging the sub woofers with his bass heavy touch, without busting the bank on the tempo front. A balance of 'good vs evil' can often be witnessed in a Valpy Techno piece

Fascinated with pitch & bass, Valpy has moulded and evolved his sound into what he produces today, recently gaining support from Pig & Dan, Ramiro Lopez, Dubspeeka & Matt Minimal, who also contribute to the style & development of his tracks, along with Alan Fitzpatrick, Adam Beyer, Joseph Capriati & Carlo Lio

Having had 2 EP's released on dubspeekas Skeleton Label and also with Seva Records, Plunk, Lethal Script & Berberris in 2014 alone, Valpy's sound has now been recognised by fast up and coming label Gain Records, (supported by the likes of Richie Hawtin) with a Solo Artist Album due for release in April 2015. There are also further releases on Skeleton and new outfit Kitchen Smoke pencilled in over the next couple of months too

To close, Valpy aims to produce music he wants to hear on the same dance floors that he frequented over the years, experimenting along the way to produce his own unique blend, with the odd twist & turn along the way...
