Cool Down

Hi Music Lovers, just wanted to revisit this classic anthem that is burning up parties since the 60's now...
I've always been attracted by the beautiful version recorded by Van Morrison together with John Lee Hooker in the late 80's, and wanted to add my French touch on it...
BPM is locked at 125.
This rework is a bit different that the ones I previously issued, and I hope you'll like it too...
Please feel free to repost it, comment, and play it as much as you can...
Thank you so much for your support, dear party people in da house !
Peace y'all !

John Lee Hooker & Van Morrison "Midnight" (Voodoo In The Bayou D0CT0RS0UL Re - Therapy)

Mandoo, a French band whose core is Esther Ben Daoud on Keyboards and Pierre Vanier on Bass and Vocals, had released a pretty good album in 2012, "Sweet Bitter Love" that contains some true West Coast flava !
There are many tracks on it that are really good, with a catchy hook and nice musical arrangements that you certainly would enjoy...
Among others, I always loved "Summer Breeze" and thanks to Pierre who kindly gave me an Ok, I had the pleasure to revamp it with my personal touch as a new Re - Therapy work.
Hope you would dig this one.
And above all, please go buy the "Sweet Bitter Love" album from Mandoo, you will never regret it ! 
Please follow Mandoo on their Facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/mandoomusic/
Peace y'all !

‘Shine (This Is It)’ is the first single from Soul Clap’s self-titled second album that features legendary vocalist Nona Hendryx. After Ray met Charles and Eli when all played at LA party institution A Club Called Rhonda this happened..!

Nona Hendryx is an original member of the trio Labelle who’s smash single “Lady Marmalade” is a timeless classic. Her solo singles “Transformation” and “Do What You Wanna Do” from the 80’s are equally prolific to her work as a back-up vocalist for a laundry list of legendary acts including Parliament-Funkadelic, Talking Heads and Peter Gabriel.

There is magic contained in ‘Shine (This Is It)’ and the strength in Hendryx's vocal empowers our sprits and moves us on the dancefloor. Midnight Magic’s Morgan Wiley delivers an outstanding keyboard solo and fellow bandmate Jason Disu teams up with Kalí Rodríguez and No Regular Play’s Greg Paulus to form the Soul Clap horn section.

Taking the magical vocals, horns and keyboard solo from the original, Ray Mang gives it a latin house twist adding an elevating Rhodes motif, bass and battery. Presented here in three versions on 180gram vinyl.

@mrkrokett - Check out the full release including Remixes from James Rod and Ilya Santanda here: https://rarewirirecords.bandcamp.com/album/drive

It's barely been seven weeks since the release of Rayko's acclaimed album No Stopping, but already the prolific producer has moved on to his next project. "Drive" sees him join forces with fellow Spaniard Landerground to deliver a wonderfully fluid, fluttering chunk of synth-heavy Balearica. The title is clearly a nod towards the famous movie of the same name, and many of the electronic sounds are reminiscent of the film's legendary soundtrack. There's a rather fine remix package, too, with Ilya Santana's rubbery, dub disco-influenced effort - arguably also the most filmic of the three reworks - impressing. James Rod's chugging, guitar-laden interpretation is also pretty darn tasty.

A side : Strong Survive [B.Paul]
B side : Dreaming [G.Henderson]

"It would be fair to say that Young Pulse has been one of GAMM's most reliable re-editors of recent years. It's now almost four years since he made his debut and in that time he's released a quartet of must-have EPs of disco-fied, soul-fired reworks. Volume five contains just two tracks, but both are - somewhat predictably - very good. A-side "Strong Survive" is a veritable peak-time disco stomper, where punchy horns, soaring orchestration and guttural soul vocals are underpinned by a rambunctious disco-house groove. "Dreaming" sees our Parisian hero stretching out a killer SAM Records cut, making more of the seductive chorus vocals and mazy, jammed-out synth solos." (Juno review)

After last years huge collaboration with Get Down Edits on the Making Music EP Waterford rising star Stephen Richards returns to Hot Digits with another stunning 3 tracker with 3 quality remixes!
Opening up with Coastal Groove, the Disco Daze radio supreme takes his chugging nu-disco melodies and lays down the first mid-tempo groundwork. Bristol wonderkid Kiu D heads up the first remix turning the track into a rubber basslined peak time affair with added piano touches. This then leading into Groundwave, a bouncy, heads down stomper followed by Hot Digits honcho Fingerman who flexes his disco muscles turning the track into a full on boogie banger complete with peaks and drops! Finally we have Rare Pleasure that sees Mr Richards go down the balearic route for the closing part of the EP. Slo-mo sun kissed vibes all the way here finishing with a superb Get Down Edits remix that combines the best elements of the track for a deep disco groover that just keeps on giving! 

Turn it up!
