Remixes, Mashups, Re-Edits and Bootlegs

This one is more of an edit really than anything else, and is tribute to the musical genius and explorative nature of Ani Difranco as an artist, this one features legendary saxophonist Maceo Parker and his son Corey Parker rapping.

Jazzy Hip Hop 93 bpm

Swing (NRNFH Bootleg)

A remix entered into a remix contest that didn't win and wasn't chosen.  You know what that means, it means it gets released into the wild unknown to wreak a pleasant havoc across the world, unfolding stories of the underground deep beneath disco balls of seemingly divine influence.

Deep House 125 bpm

Rain a Fall (NRNFH Bootleg)

This remix was originally commissioned to "not sound like a remix."  They wanted it to sound a little thicker and to add a twist to it somehow.  The twist came by squeezing a few drops of jazzy juice from the tender tenor saxophone of John Juster, LA house music legend.  To see John slink around a dance floor is one thing, but to hear him become the panther is quite another.

Vocal Jazz Dance 126 bpm

Nobody but Me (NRNFH Bootleg)

This bootleg started out as a remix of "Let It Go" for our good friends Rise Ashen and Tara Porter.  Already having enough mixes for their release, this one snuck out the back door to begin slinking the streets with a message that it whispers to each passerby who dares to listen.

Love Every Day  (NRNFH Bootleg)

A bootleg mix of Brittany Howard's bonus track from the soundtrack of the movie "Joy" with Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper.  Nothing feels as good as feeling free, and the vibe in the original song proved it by inspiring this mix.

Joy Movie Soundtrack (Bonus Track)

I Feel Free (NRNFH Bootleg)

A reworked, re-edited, reimagined take on MFSB's "Love is the Message" featuring the vocal prowess of Jason Jinx from his release "Bring Back that Feeling."  This is elbow music at it's finest, the kind of jam that you don't dare put on your toast because it tastes so good on the dance floor.

Bring Back the Love (NRNFH Bootleg)

An unreleased gem featuring the legendary spoken word vocalist Rob Wilson, the voice behind Eddie Amador's iconic classic "House Music."  Originally recorded by for an Original release, this vocal never saw the light of day, so now it thrives and delights in the night, as a drop within an ocean of undiscovered music.

Deep, Funky, House 125 bpm

House is Love  (NRNFH Bootleg)

This was an unreleased remix that was rejected by a Commune of Manatees for reasons unknown, and they didn't even say thank you, which was not only weird but also meant, as a result, the work must be released, to grow a life of its own as it bounds through time, unbounded by the acceptance of anyone else.  Could this be a real release one day..."I Can Dream."

I Can Dream (NRNFH Bootleg)

The most clever bootleg of the bunch, this tune has layers of intention baked in, a lasagna of dance floor influence if you will.  What layers you ask?  The vocal is "Ebony and Ivory" from Paul and Stevie, which is laid over the David Harness remix of "Black Music" by Franky Boissy which features Roland Clark - on top of all that, there's an introduction  and breakdown by Fatcamp from a song called "Where the Rainbow Ends."  This one requires a dance floor doctor to dissect it.

Ebony Ivory (NRNFH Bootleg)

Cutting my ravers teeth in the middle of a P.L.U.R. world I fell in love with The Chem's back in the 90's.  When their latest album dropped, I have to admit I was excited...until I listened through to the whole thing and discovered it was a bit more artistic than I was hoping.  With that being said, I did find about 30 seconds of unmitigated funk within the song "No Reason" that simply had to have something done with it.  We took it into the shop, chopped off the bumpers, stripped down the paint and put on a fresh coat of funky vocals, compliments of the timeless and delicious diva, Loleatta Holloway.  Dang this is gritty!!!

No Reason (NRNFH Bootleg)

Dubmatix - Lockdown Ft Ammoye - Rise Ashen Remix

Came across this track the other day and it took me back to 2007, hard to believe it's been ten years... Made this with my man Stephane Lefrancois when we were both living in Ottawa, Kind Sunshine was an amazing band run by Marc Shapiro out of Toronto... it featured a slew of amazing musicians over the years... Felt so blessed to get to make this mix with my homie Steflef and it never got released though I have played it at countless parties over the years...  I got in touch with Marc whom I came across again recently at Unity Hip Hop Festival in TO last summer and he gave me the blessing to give it away, so here you are!

King Sunshine - Sounds of June - Rise Ashen and Steflef Remix

So honored to get to be a aprt of the remixes for Bardo (Andrew McPherson - Eccodek)'s new project... This song hit me hard when I first heard it...  It's a bittersweet ironic testament to the art we make.  To playing for 4 walls and the bartender... To devoting your life to an artform that has changed so much in the last 15 years... Really spoke to my soul...  Did cuts on this one which is rare and a throwback for me... Hope you dig...

Bardo - Audience of None - Rise Ashen Soul Stirring Symphony Mix

Fell upon the amazing Eivør Pálsdóttir and this incredible performance which you can watch on youtube here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpiFmZLICgM along with 3.5 Million other people who have watched this.   Chopped it up so I could play it, added a really old-school hip hop beat, pretty minimal really what I did to it, but the result's like nothing I have ever heard before and it gets great reactions when I play it out... Hope you dig!
