BEING WITH YOU (Gordo Remix)

Every day, I open iTunes and press play. The first song to come up is the one I post here. If you don't like it, come back tomorrow. I guarantee it will be something different.

Having worked with Jamie Principle on some of the most seminal house records ever created, expectations are understandably high for Frankie Knuckles' latest single. 

Unsurprisingly with artists of this calibre, it doesn't disappoint. 'I'll Take You There' features all the things you'd expect; luscious chords, fierce bass and of course a flawless vocal from Principle. 

Remixes are typically heavyweight too, in the form of a club-ready bomb from The Shapeshifters and a simple yet effective re-edit from Dimitri from Paris.

Next up on ZR is this is a beautiful, timeless song performed by Joel Edwards with Wrenne. 

We signed it to ZR on the basis of the wicked nu disco style original mix. Added to the package are Joey Negro's subtly housed versions, while Sonny Wharton goes more deep and dubby.

Finalmente es publicado uno de los tantos remixes que tenía pendiente. Esta vez con la inconfundible voz de Tracey Thorn en su época con Everything But The Girl. Esta es mi canción favorita, así que apenas encontré el acapella (insolado) decidé de igual manera darle mi toque a esta hermosa pieza.

War (a Discobody better way)

Norman Whitfield & Barrett Strong wrote the anti-Vietnam war protest song “War” in 1969 for the Motown artists The Temptations. But as Motown was worried about how the Temptations fans might receive such a political theme track, Whitfield re-recorded it with Edwin Starr on vocals. Starr’s intense rendition rocketed to #1 on the U.S Pop chart in 1970 and remained there for three weeks becoming his signature track and the most popular protest song ever recorded.

Frankie Goes To Hollywood revamped it on their 1984 multi-platinum debut album “Welcome To The Pleasuredome” produced by Trevor Horn. Their take is superbly electro-funk flavored though it lacks Edwin’s dramatic performance.

On this mix I reconstruct Frankies version adding Starr’s vocals and infusing it with extra rhythms and lots of twists. War’s aggressiveness and Hope’s better-way are described thru the rough bangin’ beats and the dubby groovy sound. 
Enjoy!

This mix lyrics:

“Listen to me

Ohhh, war, I despise
Because it means destruction
Of innocent lives
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But Lord knows there's got to be a better way

War means tears
To thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go to fight
And lose their lives
Ooooh, war
It's an enemy to all mankind
The point of war blows my mind

War, whoa, yeah
What is it good for
Nothing, nothing, nothing

There's got to be a better way
Yeah, better way
Yeah, nothing, nothing

War!!

Good God y’all!
Stand up & shout it
Stand up & shout it
Ooooh Lord
War!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Stand up & shout it
Good God now..

Listen to me
War can't give life
War can't give life, life
War can't give life 
War, war, has shattered
Many a young mans dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean

War can't give life
War can't give life, life
War can't give life
It can only, only 
War can only, only
Take it away

Look out
It ain’t nothing but a heartbreaker 
Nothing but a heartbreak 
It ain’t nothing but a heartbreak..
It ain’t nothing but a heartbreaker 
Nothing but a heartbreak 
Friend only to the undertaker

There’s got to be a better way!

Yeah, aha yeah
Say it again
What is it good for?
Nothing, nothing
Good God y’all
I say it again
Ooooh Lord
What is it good for?
God, Good God y’all
I say War!
What is it good for?
I say it again
Ooooh Lord, ooooh
I say it again
Ooooh Lord, 
What is it good for? Ooooh
Nothing

War has caused unrest
Among the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die?

War 
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing

War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again 
War-huh
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing, nothing
Listen to me

It's an enemy of all mankind
No point of war
'cos you're a man
War means tears
To thousands of mothers how
When their sons go off to fight
And lose their lives

I said
War-huh
War!
What is it good for?
Absolutely nothing

War!!

Say it again y’all
War has shattered
Many young men's dreams
They've got no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But lord, there's just got to be a better way

Peace, love and understanding, tell me
Peace, love and understanding, you tell ‘em
Peace, love and understanding, say it
Peace, love and understanding
There's got to be a better way-yeah
There's got to be a better way
Better way
Got to be a better way…
OooooLord!!”

War (a Discobody better way)

U're The One 4 Me (a Discobody loud shout)

New York based duo D-Train released their first single "You're The One For Me", mixed by François Kevorkian, in late 1981 on Prelude Records. It was an instant success, hitting #1 for three weeks on the U.S. Hot Disco/Dance chart in Jan 1982 and #13 on the U.S. Soul chart. It also entered the UK Pop top-30. Larry Levan hammered it and made it a determinant Paradise Garage anthem. 
Among those who sampled it over the years are N.W.A. for their 1988 “Something 2 Dance 2”, Heavy D & the Boyz for their 1991 “Swinging With Da Hevster”, Pete Rock for his 2001 “Take The D-Train” and Prodigy for their 2004 hit “Girls”. 

It’s one of my 10 all-time fave dance tracks. The beat is sizzling hot, the bassline rules, the synths are dominant, the lyrics are so inspiring and James "D. Train" Williams’s voice is fascinatingly rich, this track is perfection through and through. 
On this mix you get lots of different sounds, extra percussion/bass/bells, longer funky intro, more breaks & reformed bridges and spiritual outro. Enjoy the loud shout!

This version’s lyrics:

“Get up
Get up on the funky D-Train
Funky D-Train

Bustin' up on a cloud, shout out loud 
You're the one for me 
With your love by my side 
The world will be mine 
You're the one for me

With this true love I found 
Picks my feet up off the ground to fly away 
With this true love my dear 
Takes away my every fear, don't go away 

You just don't know what you did to me 
But I'm not the same 
Since you gave me 
Love that's sheltered from the rain 

You just don't know how you make me feel 
Your sweet lovin', girl, is so unreal 
I've got love, love desire 
From your lovin' my soul's on fire 

Bustin' up on a cloud, shout out loud 
You're the one for me 
With your love by my side 
The world will be mine 
You're the one for me

You're the one for me, yeah 
Ooohhh, the one for me
I got to stand on up for your love
I got to stand up
For your love
Yeaaahooo!

I'm ridin' on a cloud 
Got to shout it out loud, you're my all 
Baby, hold on tight 
For the rest of my life, don't let me fall 

You just don't know what you did to me 
But I'm not the same 
Since you gave me 
Love that's sheltered from the rain 
You just don't know, no, how you make me feel 
Your sweet lovin', girl, is so unreal 
I've got love, love desire 
From your lovin' my soul's on fire

Bustin' up on a cloud, shout out loud 
You're the one for me 
With your love by my side 
The world will be mine 
You're the one for me 

With the love I have inside of me 
We can turn this world around 
We can live through all eternity 
And we'll never touch the ground 
We'll take a chance to ride upon a star 
To a place that's far away 
The light of love will shine on us 
Forever and a day 

You're the one for me, yeah 
Ooohhh, the one for me

Get up on the funky D-Train

With the love I have inside of me 
We can turn this world around 
We can live through all eternity 
And we'll never touch the ground 
We'll take a chance to ride upon a star 
To a place that's far away 
The light of love will shine on us 
Forever and a day”

The record label Muggsy is not related to Muggsy Spanier, the legendary jazz
cornettist. Nor is it connected to the tiny terror of the NBA, Muggsy Bogues.
Neither, for that matter, is it linked to Cypress Hill DJ and producer DJ Muggs.
Nope. It is, however, entirely related to the Brooklyn house firmament, Henry
Street.
The man behind Henry Street is Johnny De Mairo, known among New York
industry heads simply as Johnny D; ergo he is also the chap responsible for
Muggsy, which is why we are here.
For those of you who are not familiar with the oeuvre of Johnny D – and where
ya been if not? – let’s step to one side for the moment and run through the CV.
Born and bred in Brooklyn (and proud of that fact), Johnny D has been a DJ,
record and autograph collector from the moment he had some spare cash. He
got his first break in the music industry working for Vince Pellegrino’s S.I.N.,
before moving on to work for Atlantic Records, with whom he was associated for
many years. 
Among the many projects he’s been involved with there (and there
really are too many to mention) were the Bucketheads, with his longtime friend
and associate Kenny ‘Dope’ Gonzalez, the remix for Tori Amos’ ‘Professional
Widow’ which wound up at number one in the UK pop charts, and the remix and
campaign for Everything But The Girl’s ‘Missing’, which he took from indie nohopers
to the upper echelons of the Billboard Hot 100. “Johnny D spotted the
potential of this record early,” writes Tracey Thorn of ‘Missing’ in Disco Bedsit
Queen, “and refused to give up on it long after it might have seemed reasonable
to admit defeat. He made us realize that the song was taking off in a big way.”
As well as his major label manoeuvres, Johnny also had his ear to the ground at
street level. He first launched Henry Street in 1993, followed a few years later by
Muggsy. “I was looking at the house market and thinking a lot of the labels were
hitting a wall. I felt as a record fan and a collector, I wasn’t interested in a lot of
the shit that was out. I’d go to Vinylmania and around and I wasn’t interested.
I’d find myself tilting towards imports and I thought, you know, ‘I know how to
make records, I should start my own label’. Masters at Work was just starting
to kill things and Wednesday was their night at Sound Factory Bar night, which
is where we all were. One night, I said to Tommy Musto, who was one of my
close friends, I was thinking about doing a label. He said, “Well listen, I got all my
distribution through Northcott, if you wanna do it, we’ll do all the pressing and
distribution and you do the A&R.”
Henry Street became known for a sound deeply rooted in the disco that Johnny
De Mairo loves and collects while still taking care of dancefloor business. 
Muggsy was his chance to branch out into other areas. “After years of Henry Street music being predominantly a soulful house label, I wanted to have another outlet to
release different types of records,” recalls Johnny. “Initially, I had intended for
Muggsy to be the harder more ‘tribal-type’ label and keep the soulful stuff for
Henry Street. So when Chris ‘TKC’ Staropoli came to me with ‘Back Jack’ I figured
that was the best time for Muggsy to begin as it was a bit tribal but, more than
that, pushed the envelope a bit more than my regular releases on Henry Street.”
With a collection of like-minds gathered around the De Mairo table recording
for the label, some of them New York cohorts (Kenny Dope, Brutal Bill), with
Chicago’s Ralphi Rosario, Robbie Rivera from Puerto Rico and Miami’s Mike ‘Da
Mooch’ Mucci, Muggsy released a string of tracks that ploughed a different
furrow to big daddy Henry Street. But the Muggsy groove still retained the
sample-based ethos (and disco roots) of its proprietor Johnny D (who also found
time to released tracks under the Sopranos pseudonym with studio partner
Nicky Palermo).
“After Chris’s TKC, I was getting some tracks that were more in the pop/rock
category than the soulful/black style that pretty much was the Henry
Street Music sound,” remembers Johnny. “So Muggsy went from initially a harder
sound, to more of a rocky feel added to the tribal sound. But it still had its own
sound and the roster was a good extension of Henry Street Music in the way that
the name and brand power was there with artists like Brutal Bill, Kenny Dope
and others.”
The Muggsy Story is a document of a special time in New York history, before the
gentrification of New York made party-throwing a guerilla activity, rather than
the core of its musical soul. Muggsy, we salute you.
