I Can't Describe (The Way I Feel)

I Can't Describe (The Way I Feel)by Jennifer Hudson, feat. T.I.

An all time favourite Hawk track, that we simply had to cover. We sent a copy to Sir Alan himself, which got his attention, and lead to the collaboration on "Triumph Stag".

This mix was digitally remastered from the original 2 Track DAT master

Inspired by the film and covered forthwith, Man Of Constant Sorrow has proved to be our most popular re-vision to date.

(In constant sorrow through his days)

I am a man of constant sorrow 
I've seen trouble all my day. 
I bid farewell to old Kentucky 
The place where I was born and raised. 
(The place where he was born and raised)

For six long years I've been in trouble 
No pleasures here on earth I found 
For in this world I'm bound to ramble 
I have no friends to help me now. 

[chorus] He has no friends to help him now 

It's fare thee well my old lover 
I never expect to see you again 
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad 
Perhaps I'll die upon this train. 

[chorus] Perhaps he'll die upon this train. 

You can bury me in some deep valley 
For many years where I may lay 
Then you may learn to love another 
While I am sleeping in my grave. 

[chorus] While he is sleeping in his grave. 

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger 
My face you'll never see no more. 
But there is one promise that is given 
I'll meet you on God's golden shore. 

[chorus] He'll meet you on God's golden shore.

Make It Funky Favourite: Classic funk and classic hip hop - an unbeatable combination. Calling it an edit is probably stretching it... It's the start of the original Barkeys tune, mixed into the Jesterman's Bionic Barkay rub, then mixed back into the original again. Don't do editing software so all done the old school way, using vinyl.

A sad loss for 2011 and a fitting way to end the year. Here's the soulful groove of B Movie, stripped back and chopped up. It could be considered sacrilege to cut out a lot of the vocal, but that's what I've done so sorry to the purists. Enjoy and here's to a funky 2012.

Massive disco from the 1980 eponymous album on Spring Records.

Edited sitting by the pool in Koh Samet, Thailand messing around with the loop feature on Serato. With time on my hands and no decks, I think there will be quite a few of these over the coming month or two as I work my way through Thailand and Malaysia... don't feel sorry for me!

“2.4.1” is the second track to be unveiled from “Sans Dormir”, the second Bot’Ox LP. Two months after “Basement Love”, this second episode of a six-piece series reminds the two guys of the sound of California. No doubt it is less dark than the previous one. However, it does not really qualify as sunshine pop. The single is presented with four remixes from Paris, Tel Aviv, Toronto and Medellin.

1. 2.4.1 The artificially low voice of a man who has not been lucky in love matters tells us how money leads to trouble. Sami Osta, one of the band’s friends and partners, is the one who says this text written by Anna Jean, already responsible for some vocals on the previous LP, most notably on Blue Steel single. The production, driven by drums and guitar textures, is balanced between its complexity and the laid-back impression that the song leaves.

2. 2.4.1 (Cosmo Vitelli remix) Just as he did for Basement Love, Cosmo Vitelli, one half of Bot’Ox, gives us his dancefloor style take on the track. But the result is far from a simple “club edit”. He explores new and rich melodic, instrumental and rhythm paths. The eight-minute track is divided into several distinct sections.

3. 2.4.1 (Red Axes remix) Red Axes, the Israeli duo who signed two EPs and several memorable edits with I’m a Cliché, worked to change “2.4.1” into a discoish post-punk ballade.

4. 2.4.1 (Sandro Perri remix) A member of the famous label Constellation since 2003, the Canadian producer stays close to the original while deepening its soft-rock features. Less vocals, more guitar solo.

5. 2.4.1 (Sano ‘Money remix’) Young Colombian producer from the Cómeme family changes “2.4.1” into an acid track. And one comes to consider what kind of a drug mix can result into this weird alliance between a weighty voice and jerky moves.

Bot'Ox - 2.4.1 (Red Axes remix) (OUT NOW)

Darlyn Vlys & Frankie Dep's OFF-debut makes us dream about afterparties on the beach, and should go down very well with friends of Wolf & Lamb and the like.

Rio (feat. Menahan Street Band)

Vince Montana Jr left us on April 13, he was 85 years. 

He spent most of them writing, playing and arranging beautiful music. You can hear playing vibraphone (or vibes for short) on pretty much EVERY recording that came out of Philadelphia's Sigma Sound Studio from the late 60s to the mid 80's.

He was playing the vibes with MFSB, composers Gamble & Huff's studio supergroup, the core of what is known as the Philly Sound. He conducted the same musicians as his own Salsoul Orchestra giving them many classic Disco songs, amongst them the infamous Runaway with Loleatta Holloway on vocals on which you can clearly hear Vince's trademark vibes licks. 

In the 90's newer school House producers got him back in the studio and he arranged strings for Mousse T, DJ Meme and most notably for MAW collaborating on the Braxton's cover of the Boss and remaking his own classic Runaway.  

When I first heard "The Way U Love Me" I immediately asked to remix it and a budget to be able to get Vince to score the strings and vibes in Philadelphia. I was certain the song could be turned into a Philly Sound classic. Despite suffering with major illness at the time Vince enthusiastically accepted and made my dream come true.

The T.S.O.P. version of "The Way U Love Me" is the remix I'm the most proud of. It features a cast of more than 30 people, each one of them putting a part of their soul in the recording.
The mix you can hear on this page is an unreleased instrumental edit where the forefront is taken by the string orchestra and vibraphone solos.

As India was saying in the NuYorican Soul remake of Runaway:
"Vince, play them vibes for us just one more time"
