It can be said that a classic is timeless and Quantize Recordings is elated to release the remixes of this one in tribute to the legendary Teena Marie.

Spencer Morales (DJ Spen & John Morales) bring you another gem from the vaults, courtesy of Tasha LaRae’s sublime rendition of Teena’s classic “I Need Your Lovin”.  This tune has remained a staple in dance music and Tasha’s captivating performance will have audiences singing this disco favorite with their hands in the air once more.

The musical talents of Gary Hudgins, Skip Dorsey, & Barry Woodley make this soulful house version an authentic banger. Working alongside producers John Morales, DJ Spen & Thommy Davis, it can only be described by one word; phenomenal!!!!!

This remix package has five versions for your pleasure. We can’t say enough about the amazing Opolopo. He has two masterfully produced remixes on this package. His Vocal Remix contains all the song’s essential elements presented with an unexpected twist. This package also contains a Kee’ana Remix that’ll burn your dancefloors to ashes courtesy of their hard hitting 4x4 beats and bass.

LV Premier - Dave Leatherman & Bruce Nolan - Back Once Again [Supaearth]

Vince Montana Jr left us on April 13, he was 85 years. 

He spent most of them writing, playing and arranging beautiful music. You can hear playing vibraphone (or vibes for short) on pretty much EVERY recording that came out of Philadelphia's Sigma Sound Studio from the late 60s to the mid 80's.

He was playing the vibes with MFSB, composers Gamble & Huff's studio supergroup, the core of what is known as the Philly Sound. He conducted the same musicians as his own Salsoul Orchestra giving them many classic Disco songs, amongst them the infamous Runaway with Loleatta Holloway on vocals on which you can clearly hear Vince's trademark vibes licks. 

In the 90's newer school House producers got him back in the studio and he arranged strings for Mousse T, DJ Meme and most notably for MAW collaborating on the Braxton's cover of the Boss and remaking his own classic Runaway.  

When I first heard "The Way U Love Me" I immediately asked to remix it and a budget to be able to get Vince to score the strings and vibes in Philadelphia. I was certain the song could be turned into a Philly Sound classic. Despite suffering with major illness at the time Vince enthusiastically accepted and made my dream come true.

The T.S.O.P. version of "The Way U Love Me" is the remix I'm the most proud of. It features a cast of more than 30 people, each one of them putting a part of their soul in the recording.
The mix you can hear on this page is an unreleased instrumental edit where the forefront is taken by the string orchestra and vibraphone solos.

As India was saying in the NuYorican Soul remake of Runaway:
"Vince, play them vibes for us just one more time"
