The Jstar remix captures Bloom's playfulness and joy in a baggy dance-around-a-field vibe. 

"A song all about connections that reach beyond time and space ... imagine our hearts could rise above the earth and shout hello very loudly from space.” 

Remixed & Produced by Jstar (John Ayres) / Mixed at 2bit studios by Andrew J. Jones

JSTAR Balkan Reggae remix OUT NOW  on Juno! 
http://www.junodownload.com/products/mahala-rai-banda-jstar-balkan-reggae/2082972-02/?scref=sc

Mahala Rai Banda, Romania’s funkiest Gypsy brass band, blew minds with their 2009 album ”Ghetto Blasters”. Amongst the many hyper-fast tunes rocking on that disc there was one of sweet, laid-back grooves called ‘Balkan Reggae’.

‘Balkan Reggae’ found Mahala Rai Banda paying homage to their soul brothers in Jamaica. In the year that Jamaica is celebrating 50 Years of Independence, Mahala Rai Banda chose to reach out to their Jamaican brethren and invited London-based top dub remixer Jstar to give ‘Balkan Reggae’ a sonic turbo charge.

Long celebrated for his classic reggae hip-hop mashups, Jstar regularly tours the planet dropping good grooves on party people and pushing bass culture forward. Jstar, who knows a phat groove when he hears one, is a big Mahala Rai Banda fan. His dub remix of ‘Balkan Reggae’ keeps the tune’s lyrical, sunshine vibe while giving it an urban electro tweak and twist. JSTAR about MAHALA RAI BANDA: “These guys got more bounce than a rubber ball!”

Citizen Sound feat. Ammoye - "Wa Do Dubb"-JSTAR Remix

This tested heavy DnB mix from Jstar, well known for his cheeky reggae hiphop remixes and mashups was released alongside remixes from UK's Wrong Tom and German reggae producer Aldubb.
In the continuing development of his sound, Jstar produced this synthed-up monsterremix, inspired by recent travels with NZ's Shapeshifter and the Hospital Records crew!
Citizen Sound is the production moniker of Toronto-based DJ and producer Aram Scaram. In addition to his work in the studio, Aram is the co-host of Version Xcursion, a weekly radio show that has provided Toronto with some of the most ground-breaking dub for the past 13 years.
