ghostpoet // remix competition winners


 
A while back, multi-faceted UK artist Ghostpoet was approached for a remix competition in which fans would rework one (or more) of three singles from his recently released Some Say I So I Say Light LP courtesy of [PIAS] Recordings

The tracks:

1. Meltdown

2. Cold Win

3. Dial Tones

After much deliberation the winners were, Bastard Sugar’s  otherworldly version of Dial Tones, UK artist Thinnen’s dark and bass-loaded take on Cold Win, and the heavily percussive house remix of Meltdown by Londoner Joe Ashworth. All three of the tracks will be cut to their own dubplates by The Carvery, and can be streamed in full below. Peace. Continue reading “ghostpoet // remix competition winners”

capitol cities // love away

Capitol Cities are channeling Sir Paul McCartney on their Love Away track and I ain’t mad at ’em one bit. It’s a great song with an equally great vibe. And the chorus, “Love, just love away, just do it every day, just do it every way.” I mean really, who can argue with that kind of logic? Not I. The song is the last song on the duo incredible In a Tidal Wave of Mystery LP which debuted recently. I’ve also included their wonderful Staying Alive Remix for all you Bee Gee fans. Bee who? I know right…lol. Also, if you head over to Google Play you can get a FREE DOWNLOAD of the track Kangaroo Court for a limited time only. Peace.
