This is my edit of the classic Etta James jam "In the Basement".  This is more of a bass-heavy edit leaning heavily on the classic Electro side of the vintage remix sound.  Enjoy!

Etta James - Down In The Basement (Mr. Automatic Vintage Remix)

"It's a pulled pork sandwich shoved down a saxophone...It is the sound of people who tweet about Downton Abbey." - Vice Magazine

Mr. Automatic is a Milwaukee-based Producer and DJ. He is responsible for co-founding Rouge! Electro Swing, Front 312 at Neo, as well as Roaring City Festival and Calliope Presents. His sets are known for their eclecticism and genre-hopping. He began his career spinning Electro and Indie Dance music, and quickly started combining elements of Italo, Disco, Industrial and 80's New Wave into his production and DJ mixes.

With the rise in visibility of the Steampunk scene in Chicago, he started getting booked to play events that required a more "vintage" take on modern dance music. During this time, he discovered Electro Swing and produced a handful of singles, remixes, and and two EPs in the genre. Electro Swing turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as it led to residencies at Untitled Supper Club in Chicago as well as the Foundation Room at House of Blues. During this time, he opened for a number of acts including Meute and Caravan Palace, and played all over the United States, as well as playing with Dutty Moonshine just outside of Bristol, England.

Over the past few years, his interests have varied from resurrecting his long-running Computer Love night with Le Sprite and Marty Mars, DJing Italian Soundtracks at a Giallo cinema festival, and producing Dark Synth music as Scream City, as well as ambient music under Bill Netherlands (his design and animation alias).

He has headlined the Steampunk Ball in Tampa Florida, DJed the silent disco and Carousel Club/Hangar at Electric Forest, played Swingtronic in Los Angeles, The Edwardian Ball in New Orleans, and played numerous private events, including Daybreaker and Danny Boyle's afterparty for Trainspotting 2. He was a co-producer of Nu Disco act "Square Frames", wrote music and played keys with Many Moons and is a member of the occasional Kraftwerk cover band super-group "Death on the Autobahn", which includes members of Kill Hannah, Alinka, Stabbing Westward, Echodroides.
