06 - Strange Fruit (Feat. Mattic & Justin Perceval)

Featuring Ed Harcourt, the muse of this track is World War II Soviet sniper Roza Shanina. It's taken from Rae & Christian's forthcoming album 'Mercury Rising', released on Late Night Tales' new sub label "Night Time Stories" on 20th October 2013.

"While writing abstractly about love and loss and going to a club of an evening are all passable things to write songs about, sometimes you just want a folk-tinged ode to a Russian female sniper. Thankfully production duo Rae & Christian have delivered just that with their new single, The Ballad of Roza Shanina. Taken from their forthcoming third album, Mercury Rising – their first since 2001's Sleepwalking – it features the soft, crumpled croon of Ed Harcourt and is based on the life of Soviet sniper, Roza Shanina, who fought and died during World War II. Having put herself forward to serve her country following the death of three of her brothers in battle, she went on to become the first Soviet female sniper to be awarded the Order of Glory and died trying to shield a wounded soldier in 1945. It's this context that fuels the lilting strum of The Ballad, with Harcourt singing from the perspective of Shanina and a loved one, the chorus of "Over and over, I'll wait for you, my Roza, my Roza", mocked by the line that precedes it: "one day all the shooting stops...One day came too late for you and me".

Jerk Ribs

Kelis - 'Jerk Ribs' (Mount Kimbie Remix)

One of my absolute favourite Aretha tracks.  Enjoy :-)

Get It Rite [LNTG Don't Give Up Rework]

My take on

Jamiroquai - You Give Me Something (2001)

Download

J - You Give Me Something (FF Edits)

Free Download

Fonzi Thornton - Someday (Yam Who? Rework)

I love 80s and 90s RnB.
The SOS Bands 'No Ones Gonna Love You' is one of my absolute favourites.  I think Brandys 'Best Friend' fits nicely over the top.

Without U [LNTG SOS Rework]

Quite a few fellas got inspired and put their hands on this one after VA's beloved edit a couple of years ago. Oh well, the first cut is the deepest and VA's one was really motivating for us too, we  both decided to give it an uptempo rub and make dancefloors smile again! - have a healthy and happy 2015, with great music and Lotta Luv <3
