6. Jackson Brown - James Brown x Michael Jackson
7. The Illmatics = Nas x The Dramatics (feat. James Brown)

This time around, Amerigo takes on James Brown in The Big Payback Vol lll. In the third and latest offering from "The Big Payback" summer mix series, the producer follows the exceptionally awesome first and second volumes from the legendary DJ Scratch and master craftsman, J. Period.  

Bringing together a fantasy league of all-stars for his "J.B. and The Soul Mates" tribute concept, the producer's latest offers an alternative to the sometimes uninspired, profit-driven, posthumously released albums. 

With guest appearances from Bob Marley, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Fela Kuti, The Notorious B.I.G., Mobb Deep, and more, Amerigo pays tribute to the God Father of Soul with a re-imagined set of co-conspirators.

"I'm not sure any other artist has left their imprint on popular music, especially across so many genres, as much as James Brown has.  With as many of today's hit songs that were built around some sort of James Brown flip, it's almost like he had a say in what the music of future generations would sound like without even knowing it."

My Mind

With our latest Soul Mates Project release, fittingly titled "A Common Wonder," Amerigo Gazaway brings to life an imagined studio session between Chicago's crowned prince of Hip-Hop, Common, and Motown legend, Stevie Wonder.

A return to the Soul meets Hip-Hop formula of his Marvin Gaye + Mos Def pairing “Yasiin Gaye,” Gazaway connects the dots between Hip-Hop and the genre’s predecessor with a musical history lesson told through the intersecting themes of Common and Stevie’s respective catalogues. As Gazaway put it:

“Stevie Wonder’s early use of synthesizers, drum machines, and samplers, in a lot of ways, paved the way for hip-hop and sampling. Part of my motivation for this project was to highlight those contributions”

Picking up where Common and Stevie’s 2016 “Black America Again,” single left off, Amerigo brings his imagined recording session to life with a slew of uncovered resources (including multitrack instrument stems, interview audio, and documentary soundbites.) Re-orchestrating deconstructed samples, the producer interweaves Common’s vivid wordplay and Wonder’s passionate vocals for a project that blurs the line between a “mashup” and a modern day duets album.

The Brazilian Hipster (Skeewiff Remix)
by Fort Knox Five
FKX123 - Fort Knox Recordings
https://fanlink.to/Hipster

Often it’s just one song that comes to define an artist, becoming their marquee track. For Fort Knox Five that track is “The Brazilian Hipster.” Released on Fort Knox Recordings in April of 2004 the tune became an instant sensation and party hit, appearing on the famed Hotel Costes collection and the soundtrack to the Academy Award-winning documentary “The Cove.” The original 12-inch single, which featured the Dr. Rubberfunk Remix on the B-side, quickly sold out and has been out-of-print ever since. Now, exactly fifteen years later, Fort Knox Five are rereleasing “The Brazilian Hipster” on 7-inch vinyl for the very first time, with the coveted Skeewiff Remix on the flip side.

What can be said about “The Brazilian Hipster” that hasn’t been said before? From Rob Myers’ juicy Bossa Nova guitar lick to Steve Raskin’s retro-future production stylisims, there is something inimitable in every corner of this track. When those classic, heavy-hitting horns drop into that perfect pocket a little bit of magic starts to happen. This is the party you’ve been looking for, with low-key cool and laid-back hustle. “The Brazilian Hipster” has held up so well, over the past 15 years, it has earned a spot in the record bin of timeless tracks.

On the flip side of this 45 you’ll find a rare gem: the elusive (and now exclusive) Skeewiff Remix of “The Brazilian Hipster.” Skeewiff cuts a groove like only he can and delivers a complete reintrepretation of FK5’s seminal classic. Starting with a dramatic build, the squelching organs and bubbling percussion all come to a head in a funky, breakbeat ode to ’70s cool. Relentless from start to finish the Skeewiff Remix percolates with retro flair, dropping happy surprises all along the way.

And don’t forget to check out the cheeky cover art that references the original vinyl, (done by the FK5 themselves.) This package is, well… the full package. It sold out the first time, chances are it will again!

The Brazilian Hipster (Skeewiff Remix)

My take on a certain female 80s icon's earliest hit....full multitrack freakout on this one - new percs, bass, FX and arrangement.

Track 2 on the 'Earthly Crowd'  single, a new collaboration by Daytoner & Mr Bird, exclusively available to download from Bandcamp
---
Having previously remixed each other’s tracks, Daytoner & Mr Bird have been friends for over 10 years, albeit at a sociable distance of 800 miles between Moss in Penzance (UK) & Steve Bird in Lisbon (Portugal).

They’ve often shared ideas and talked about collaboration but projects such as Daytoner’s live band or Mr Bird’s releases & remixes for multiple labels (Ramrock, BBE, Matasuna) have always taken precedence. So, determined to put that right, they’ve swapped recordings from their own sessions over the last year, trading breaks, percussion, guitar, bass, string and synth lines remotely from their own home studios to create 2 tracks to suit funk, breaks and old school hip-hop heads alike.

Mr Bird went further and asked ‘The Audible One’ and Daisy B to provide the vocals on their version and through the twisting flows they cordially invite all to reach higher orbits. On the flip, Daytoner supplies a supercharged car-chase theme to get the funk on for B-Boys & Girls.

This 2 track single is released as a digital download exclusively on Bandcamp, on Friday 31st July 2020.

Daytoner & Mr Bird - 'Earthly Crowd' (Daytoner Instrumental)

We’re excited to share Amerigo Gazaway’s brand new Otis Redding x Big Boi remix, “Shutterbugg”. Inspired by a recent tour stop in Redding’s hometown of Macon, GA (and composed on the road in-between gigs), the producer re-orchestrated instrumental elements from a handful of Redding classics, creating an entirely new production with the vocals of another Georgia native, Outkast’s own Big Boi.
