Words from FSQ:

We first heard Life on Planets perform live at WMC in 2015 at the Freehand Hotel in Miami. When we heard "Cold Front" we new we wanted to work with it as it has a bubbly bass synth that kicks in with a sinister bass line and all other kinds of cool elements. The "S" in FSQ stands for "style" and we like to apply various musical styles to our remix work. We reached out to Life on Planets and got the session and went to work.

Billy Bass Nelson is one of the founders of Funkadelic (he even coined the term) which got started way back in 1969. 

FSQ had the opportunity to get a session in with Billy Bass in May 2015, and we brought him to Williamsburg to Dave Robertson's (Cameo Culture)'s studio. We pulled up the Life on Planets session since it needed work, and Billy just it took over. The vibes were thick in the little basement room as he laid down bass and multiple tracks of guitars.  

What most people do not realize about Billy Bass Nelson is that he had a productive career after leaving Funkadelic full time in 1972 and is on so many disco funk hits that are played heavily today. 

His work beyond Funkadelic includes productions for The Commodores, The Temptations, Rose Banks (Sly Stone's sister), Jermaine Jackson, Lenny Williams, Alton McLain & Destiny and Smokey Robinson. 

Many of Billy's LA disco sessions were also joined by Funkadelic guitarist Eddie Hazel and Sly Stone himself, not credited, but instead Sly went under the name Jimmy Ford (a joke, the president who took over from Nixon). 

The FSQ Billy Bass Funkadelic dub version of Life on Planets "Cold Front" marks the first time Billy's been heard on a record since his 1995 solo record. We made a YouTube playlist of Billy's post Funkadelic disco-funk works here, and we think you'll be able to link his distinct sound on these cuts, to what you will hear in the new FSQ dub we did for Life on Planets.

During the Billy Bass session on "Cold Front", Billy remarked that LOP vocalist Phil Jenkins sounds a bit like Tyrone Davis. 

Tyrone Davis is a famous northern soul singer, known for his hit "Turn Back the Hands of Time". Ironically, we heard the very same thing with Phil, so we created an alternate remix of "Cold Front" with deep northern soul stylings including lush guitars, organs, melodica, and a driving northern soul beat. FSQ's GKoop played a big part in revising the song for this style which we often produce in (we did a northern soul remix for Nick Monaco in 2014). Violinist Lauren Avery guests here, recording over 25 tracks of strings to give the remix a fully orchestrated sound that you hear on many northern soul records. 

If you don't know much about the "northern soul" genre, and it's importance to the world of DJing and also its link to disco, you should read this lengthy post by DJ Greg Wilson. There's entire chapter in the book Last Night a DJ Saved My Life on "northern soul".
