+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content...0/Be%20As%20One

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Dan McKie teams up with friend and top producer Phil England.

Phil is no stranger to the game having been a regular on the DJ circuit and a bass player in various bands and sessions for around 20 years! Currently Phil is remixing for the likes of Underwater, Universal, Warners, 1980 Recordings and has releases signed to Big In Ibiza, Boomboxx Records which are getting support by some of the biggest dj players and radio jocks across the world.

This track came about when Dan McKie was djing at Phil's Club Night in Cardiff, The Mansion. They sat down in the studio for a few hours and this is the result.

A french tinge house track that pays homage to the sounds of 'Jean Jacques Smoothie' and alike.

Think cool, think funky, think house

« on: February 09, 2009, 06:50:54 am »


Dani L. Mebius - My Own Music

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content...y%20Own%20Music

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Dani L. Mebius second outing on 1980 Recordings. His previous track 'Keep Rockin' was played by the who's who of dance music and appeared in the beatport burners.

Dani L's last remix on 1980 was a favorite on Roger Sanchez's release Yourself radio show, and was his 'Release Yourself Exclusive Track' 2 weeks in a row!

This time he gives us on a techy, summery vibe, guitar laden electro house track at its best.

On the remix tip first up we have Filip Le Frick (Currently fresh from riding high in the beatport charts with his remix on Big In Ibiza (No.2 in the House Chart and No.11 in the top 100 Overall chart). Doing what he does best and showing why he is fast becoming one of the leading remix producers. Here he turns out a Latin Electro Tribal Remix that is gaurenteed to get any floor grooving!

Next we have another hot talent in the form of Andy BopH, with strings of remixes and productions on Big In Ibiza, Nukluez and more he turns out a fidget-esq electro squelchy track.

Last but not least is 1980 recordings regular Licious K, bringing the mood down with his deep cool house remix.

This is a cool club track that should be getting a play by the whos who of dance music!

Feedback:

- Des Mitchell (BCM) - love the filip le frick and Andy BopH mixes.
- Mental X (SOG Records / Virus Radio) - the original and the licious K mixes are cool! will play booth, 8 out of 10.
- Dance Radio Greece - Solid strong house track that will bring a bit of sun in the cold snowy days. The whole production is pure class with original,flip le frick and licious k being my favorite. certainly a track that deserves to get some recognition.
- Pieter De Wagter - Licious K Remix is great. 7/10
- Luke Dubyah (Fire 107.6FM) - Lovin the Andy Boph mix, he's one of my producers to watch in 2009
