DJ Icey - Your Love

In January 2011, I hijacked a basic track recorded in the 70's by Stevie Nicks. Just her voice, some minimal keyboard and some minimal drum machine. This track is the result of me adding a bunch of my own vocals and instrumentation to that original recording.

Found out later that Snicks was coming out with an updated version of that old nugget for her new album. On February 3rd, which was the advanced release date of her new version, I completed this, my version.

Here's the link to exactly what I started with:

Diplo & Friends BBCR1XTRA: Decemeber 1st (Rollerskating Thru The Universe)

One of the few truly decent remixes of  "Edge of Seventeen," which has suffered under less than capable, mostly amateur, hands and sonically challenged ears. Mync( Mark Brown & Nick Corelli) hoped to release this Nicks mix, but couldn't obtain the legal clearance from Warner, which had just asked Nicks to deliver a second greatest hits package.  The label commissioned new remixes of  "Stand Back" (a top five dance hit in 1983 & 2007) and "Edge' was earmarked as a follow-up, but Warner still has no plans to release them. Mync adjusted their  "Edge" rework, lyrics were rewritten and a new singer was drafted to sing the new composition "Something On Your Mind." That's how babies are born. 

Stevie Nicks  - Edge of Seventeen  (2005 myncMix)

The acapella is from a recording session prior to 1982, even though the song remained unreleased until Fleetwood Mac's 2003 "Say You Will," for which Nicks recorded a new vocal. The consensus among fans: 1982>2003. Lindsey Buckingham's over-worked production and terrible arrangement sounded like sabotage those familiar with the scorching versions Nicks turned in years prior.

Stevie Nicks - Smile at You (Youth's Going Home Dub)

I love what Axwell did with this. Music & Lyrics by Stevie Nicks, who re-recorded the vocal for Deep Dish. The song was a Billboard Hot  #1 hit for Nicks off of Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" album.

About Atlas Genius-
The members of Adelaide, Australia’s Atlas Genius do things a little differently….They set about building a studio where they could write and record music for their newly formed band 3 years before they even played their first live show as Atlas Genius. For two years, they devoted their days to constructing their dream studio and spent their nights performing songs by The Police, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones at local pubs to pay the bills. “We really got down and dirty with dry walling and literally laying the floorboards, and at the same time we were taking a couple of days a week to focus on writing songs,” recalls Keith Jeffery, Atlas Genius’s vocalist/guitarist. "We had a lot of song ideas and it was important to us to have our own studio where we could experiment and hone in on our sound," adds brother and drummer, Michael Jeffery. The studio was designed and outfitted by the brothers with the help of their father (who comes from a music and engineering background). Once the studio was complete, the first song that Atlas Genius finished was a song called “Trojans,” which they wrote, recorded and produced in collaboration with their friend, keyboardist Darren Sell. After many weeks tweaking the song, Michael insisted that the song was ready to be heard outside of the studio walls. Within an hour, “Trojans” was on the Triple J Unearthed Website, SoundCloud, and for sale via TuneCore on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify worldwide.

“We had begun to think that music was a pipedream and we had all gone back to university to pursue more realistic careers,” says Keith. “We’d had such a long slog of playing late nights and working all day, and it felt like we didn’t really have anything to show for it.” But then, in the midst of cramming for their Fall 2011 semester final exams, Neon Gold discovered “Trojans” on the Triple J Unearthed Website and wrote a post praising “Trojans” as a song sure to “invade your head, all dressed up in a clever disguise of earnest vocals riding a hooky riff.” Checking the band’s email account for the first time in over a month, the band found that dozens of record labels, publishers, lawyers, booking agents and management companies from all over the world had contacted them.

“We were trying to focus on school, but it was just impossible,” recalls Keith. “So we said, ‘There’s something going on here. Let’s get back to the music.’” The band added manager, Jonny Kaps from +1, to their extended family to navigate all of the interest as the band focused on writing and recording more songs.

Quickly named an iTunes Single of the Week in Australia and New Zealand, “Trojans” reached #4 on Hype Machine by the end of May. In August, SiriusXM Satellite Radio’s Alt-Nation discovered the song on a blog and decided to give it some spins. There was an immediate reaction from listeners, and in September, “Trojans” was placed into heavy rotation, where it maintained a top-five position on the listener-generated Alt-18 countdown and peaked at number one for 4 consecutive weeks in January 2012. “Trojans” began selling over a thousand tracks per week on U.S. iTunes and soon climbed to 45,000 sales - all with zero promotional efforts from the still-unsigned Atlas Genius.

“Knowing we had this audience that was waiting on new songs, we had a much greater sense of purpose than we had before,” says Keith. “It was really exciting to know that there were people who wanted to hear more of our music.” Although labels were clamoring for the band to come to the U.S. and play a series of showcase gigs, Atlas Genius turned down those offers in favor of staying in Adelaide to keep writing and recording new songs. In February 2012, after months of communicating with numerous labels via Skype, the band chose to travel to the US in order to make their label decision.

“We’d never been to America before,” says Keith. “We flew in at night and saw this sea of lights, and it really became apparent to us how massive the U.S. is. It was pretty intimidating - like ‘How do we fit into all this?’” In April 2012, the band returned to the states having made their decision to sign with Warner Bros. Records. “We felt a connection with them,” notes Keith. “Everyone there feels very creative and dedicated to the music.”

The band’s first release from their new label home, the EP Through The Glass (produced, engineered and mixed by the band), came out in June of 2012. With Through The Glass completed, Atlas Genius then holed up in its studio and worked on writing and recording its first full-length album, while at the same time rehearsing for their first ever tour. The tour started in August 2012 and led to three more tours back to back taking them thru to the end of the year. Thus, their full-length debut was finished up between tour dates and got completed just before Christmas 2012. When It Was Now is set for a US release on February 19th, 2013, with an international release to follow soon after.

The debut captures Atlas Genius’s singular combination of sophisticated musicality and warm, wistful spirit. Infused with a classic sensibility, each of the songs would fit seamlessly if somehow slipped into a long-treasured mixtape. On the shimmering “Symptoms,” for instance, taut keyboard riffs mesh with urgent acoustic strumming before the band bursts into a gently frenetic, guitar-drenched chorus. Meanwhile, “Back Seat” blends its pulsing bass throb with a sweetly infectious beat and tender vocals that alternately soar and sigh. And on “Trojans,” Atlas Genius begins with a restrained guitar melody and vocal (“Take it off, take it in/Take off all the thoughts of what we’ve been”) before giving way to the handclap-accented, harmony-soaked refrain and lush yet kinetic bridge.

“It’s still surreal,” says Keith of all that’s happened over the past 18 months. “I think when we were very young, we had hopes that something like this might happen one day,” he continues. (Thanks largely to encouragement from their Beatles fanatic parents, who encouraged the brothers to begin playing music by age 14.) “But then you grow up a bit and it seems less and less likely. So when we put ‘Trojans’ out, we figured it would be a success if maybe a hundred people heard it. We don’t want to force our music onto anyone. Our goal is to write songs that we love and we hope they connect with other people too.”

Multi-Instrumentalist, Vocalist and Composer Go-Ray was initiated into the ambience of Hindustani Raag in the melody-rich haze of the Thar desert.

Master Producer, Composer and Percussionist Duke Mushroom’s musical path weaves across the majestic purple steppes of Ethiopia.

Their creative paths converge at Duke’s Harlem studio, amidst an incredible community of musicians and artists. When the two first met to collaborate on music for film, a musical journey began. Each draws inspiration from the other’s influences and musical skills. A shared quest for spirituality in the everyday became...Devotional Dub.

The Yoga Sessions: Go-Ray & Duke is the first fruit of this musical convergence. The record is an 11-part paean to love-- the sort of mad love that stupefies-- the deep love that we try to harness and contain within the mysteries of spiritual practice.  Each track brings deep grooves to the devotional vibe of classicism.
