Name: Gabrielle - I Wish (MJB:217 Remix) by MJB:217
Duration: 3 min 56 s
Description: Gabrielle's debut album 'Find Your Way' has some seriously good R&B songs on it. She's best known for 'Dreams' from that album but, in my opinion, there are far superior songs on it. In its original form, 'I Wish' is a mid-tempo R&B track. I wanted to see how it works as a dance song. Track is not being monetized.

This was inspired by my friend Jabari. We were talking about our favourite Jody Watley songs. I shared that mine is 'I Want You'. He shared that his is 'Still A Thrill'. So I made this for him. Track is not being monetized.

I wish Mya had more mainstream success than what she's had. Despite this, she's had a pretty prolific career. I saw her recently on a BET Awards segment honouring the music show 106 & Park. Seeing her reminded me of her greatness and I recalled how much I enjoy this song. Track is not being monetized.

This song never grows old to me. I love the beat, the vocal, the melody. Takes me back to the beginning of the 90s in a wonderfully nostalgic way. The vocal is a bit artifacted but I tried to clean it up as best as possible. Track is not being monetized.

Maxi Priest - Close To You (MJB:217 Remix)

This song will always remain one of my favourite 90s house / hip house songs. There are so many good tracks on their CD 'Changing Cabins'. I actually went with a hit this time (versus not doing an artist's signature tune like I normally do). Track is not being monetized.

Shanice has a powerhouse voice. Mostly remembered for 'I Love Your Smile', I was always more partial to this lesser known single released a few years after her signature hit. Track is not being monetized.

Barbara Tucker has one of the best voices in house music. I had the pleasure of shouting her name at her a few years ago at a show and she jovially replied. 'Beautiful People' is, by far, my favourite song of hers but I wanted to mix this track instead. Track is not being monetized.

Martha Wash is one of the greatest singers, ever! While she was rightfully credited for her work with Sylvester and Two Tons o' Fun. Her run of mainstream hits during the early 90s were shrouded in controversy because thinner singers/models lip synced to her vocals (Black Box, C&C Music Factory). Thankfully, that injustice came to light, a lawsuit ensued, from which she received acknowledgement and compensation for her work. I believe stemming from that lawsuit future artists were required to be credited for their work. She released a solo album of work after that which contains so many fantastic songs. 'Carry On' and 'Give It To You' are my favourites from it. I opted to mix the latter. Track is not being monetized.

I believe this is my fifth Cathy Dennis remix. This was the last single off of her debut album, 'Move To This'. I used some reggaeton influence here in the percussion. Track is not being monetized.

This is probably my fifth or sixth Lisa Stansfield remix. I've always loved the soulfulness of her voice. While she's best known for 'All Around The World', I always preferred this song from her debut album 'Affection'. I couldn't find a studio acapella of this song so I had to work with a very artifacted vocal. I tried my best to clean it up. Track is not being monetized.

This is my 100th SoundCloud remix! A good friend suggested this song to me and I found that very fitting: a great milestone song to do that also pays homage to the country I'm from by mixing a fellow Canadian. Her voice rivals Whitney and it's heartening to see her career have such longevity. She's had countless mixes made of her songs so here is yet another! Track is not being monetized.

Amateur remixer, self-teaching myself the ropes. Check out some remixes I've made. A few others are on my YouTube channel (link below) that SoundCloud rejected. All songs inspired by 90s house and R&B. Nothing is being monetized.
