SINNAMON - I NEED YOU NOW (MOPLEN EDIT)

***********************************************

No doubt, “I Need You Now” by Sinnamon is one of the most sampled recordings ever. 
During the past three decades, this R & B/Soul/Dance/Funk/Electronic track has become a classic club anthem. 
Now, thanks to a skillfully edited version of the original recording dubbed “I Need You Now (Moplen Edit)” by Luca Locatelli, Stevette Music is pleased to be a part of the 30th Anniversary re-mastered release of this timeless masterpiece. 
Included on this release is a bonus of the song’s very basic tracks from a cassette tape that has also endured and survived over this period of time. It represents a point in time, in fact 1979, when five very young men, barely in their twenties, went into a studio totally unrehearsed, and “nailed” those tracks in one take. 
Later, on overdubbed tracks, Andre Booth who wrote “This Beat Is Mine” by Vickie D, would become one of the first keyboard players to utilize a synthesizer on a dance record. 
On subsequent overdubs, R. Bernard Fowler, would lend his powerful voice to the song as lead & background vocalist. 
LaForrest Cope, who wrote Whitney Houston’s “You give Good Love”, and Jacqueline Sampson would also contribute their soulful vocals as background singers.
I am confident that all will enjoy this latest rendition, true to the original version.

Everything started a few months ago when Stephen Cumberbatch (the writer of "I Need You Now") left his comment on my edit:

"I wrote, recorded, and produced this song back in 1979, with R. BERNARD FOWLER as lead vocalist. Way before the Peech Boys. 
This song is where they got "Don't Make Me Wait" from, the opening line to " I Need You Now". 
Moplen, I wish you had been around to mix this back "in the day".
You did a great job!!!! 
We only need to pressure a record company to re-release your mix.
This is hot!!!!

Thanks,
Stephen Cumberbatch"

Raw Silk 'Do It To The Music' (greg wilson edit)

114bpm

Never previously shared

I know there are quite a few edits of ‘Do It To The Music’ knocking about, a couple of which I’ve played out myself (Frico & Kid Color), but here’s the one I put together back in 2006 that’s popped up in a couple of my mixes, just a ruff from the vinyl incorporating both the main vocal mix and the dub, with no added elements. I only ever intended it to be for my own personal use, rather than something I considered pressing up (otherwise I’d have tried to get hold of a slightly cleaner copy to work from). The reason I’d discounted it for inclusion on a limited run 12” was because I’d thought about the track as a potential candidate for the first Credit To The Edit album the previous year, but I’d already used the acappella from the beginning of the dub over DMX Krew’s ‘Who Got The Funk’, the combination becoming Raw DMX ‘Do It To The Funk’ – the first track I played on my DJ comeback at Music Is Better (see: http://www.gregwilson.co.uk/2011/09/music-is-better-re-edited-highlights), and subsequently a key C2theE track. I figured an additional Raw Silk edit would be overkill, so the idea was shelved. But now we’re at a different point in time and I’m sharing edits here on SoundCloud, so here it is.

Mixed by Nick Martinelli & David Todd and released in the US on Mel Cheren’s West End label, ‘Do It To The Music’ was picked up on import by specialist DJ's in the UK, but following its release here on KR it’d crossover to the more mainstream clubs, and eventually enter the Top 20 of the charts here. West End was the source for so many classic underground cuts during my time at Legend and Wigan Pier (Peech Boys, Brenda Taylor, Stone, Shirley Lites, Barbara Mason, Forrrce, DJ Divine etc), and it was right up there with the likes of Prelude and Tommy Boy and as one of the most essential labels of the era as far as the black scene here in the UK was concerned.

So, without further adieu; no time for criticising, music's hypnotising, everybody's temperature's rising, so get down.

Unlimited Touch - I Hear Music In The Streets M+M Mix 2017 Update

What a Disco Funk Electro corker from 1981!
Can't get enough of this song, such good vibes.
The B-Side is pretty happening too; its an instrumental by the legendary Tee Scott.
Mighty Mouse has done a nice edit of this A-Side too. If I can get some more minutes I'll upload it...or you could get off your arse and look on his SoundCloud page yourself.
Lazy!
