Music Week says “She Cries is actually a pretty piano-based ballad, which has been pumped up for club purposes in mixes by Bassmonkeys, Younique, Timothy Allan, Hi-Jack, Stereojackers and Soulshaker.”

UK Music Week also says that it’s #1 on the Club Chart, and #2 on the Music Week Mainstream charts for the week of March 13, 2010. GOOD TIMES!

Coming out on Audiofreaks label soon.

Check out the preview of my remix below:

Produced by Russia’s Ex-plosion with remixes by UK’s Avatar One, France’s Westhill & Alenza, Canada’s Australian transplant Timothy Allan, Uruguay’s Gabriel Robella, Nyc’s A-Luv and Dave Rosario and last but not least, Chicago’s own Barringon Lawrence.

Tiff delivers once again with her trademark vocals which I’ve remixed into a mellow, chill out kind of track… I think works quite well! It’s just started promo and will be released shortly.

Check the preview below the image for a chillaxing taste of the remix.

Here’s a progressive house track which will be making its debut appearance on a forthcoming compilation CD entitled “Exploring Australia” on Baroque Records. Baroque records continue the ‘exploring..’ series from Australia. This one is compiled by Matt Rowan, and it contains a whole lot of Australian based talent including the occasional immigrant like myself

Making an appearance on the CD are the Progress Inn boys, who provided me with a fantastic remix for my “Buckyball” release on Beatgeek Records earlier on, Jaytech who needs no introduction, and even my chum Neon Stereo whom I remixed a while back with the “Discolights” track out on Play Digital. It’s a smorgasboard of Aussie action!

As well as a digital release, there is also going to be a USB stick and a physical CD which you can get your proggy mitts on after the release date. This is scheduled for release at the end of October 2009.

Update: It’s been released as BARQCD016 and is now available in digital and USB stick formats from http://www.baroquerecords.com

From totally out of left field today I get a message saying that Madonna has picked a track a mate and I did as “The Hong Kong Blondes” to to appear on her new compilation CD. We released the track a few years ago, it had some ARIA chart success here in Australia, and then we never heard from it again… until now!

The always cool Madonna hand picked one of our tracks “Superfine” to be included on her latest CD compilation entitled “The EQ Sessions Vol. 1 Celebrity Sets”.

It’s exclusively mixed by Madonna and is available on iTunes now! Also included on the compilation are artists such as Daft Punk, Tiësto, Axwell and David Guetta! Massive.

A while ago I was asked to do a remix for the re-release of the Loverush UK!  single ‘Fountains Of Youth’.

At the time I wasn’t aware of who the vocalist was on it, I just thought it was a great track. While I was working on it, I had some crazy Deja Vu. I knew I had worked with the vocalist before but couldn’t figure out where from.

After a bit of the google, I found out that the vocals were none other than the lovely Molly Bancroft (the voice behind Club Anthems such as Gabriel & Dresden’s ‘Tracking Treasure Down’ and Pete Tong’s Essential New Tune Gianluca Motta’s ‘Not Alone’ on BBC Radio 1).

Way back when, I had entered a remix competition for G&D’s ‘Tracking Treasure Down’, a few months before that single was released… which I didn’t win! So now I get a second shot at remixing Bancroft. Ha.

It’s gaining huge support from international DJs including DJ Slang, Suzy Solar, Sapphirecut, DJ Vierro, Johan Gielan, Mazza & Martinelli, Matt Darey, Steve Smart, Menno De Jong, Roger Sanchez, Mark Brown (MYNC Project), Mike Pickering, Mark Robinson (Peppermint Jam), Pedro Del Mar, Aldrin Quek, mark Lewis, Mr Sam and the Sucker DJs to name a few.

There is a dub-strumental, plus a full vocal mix for a total bouncing house selection that caters to whatever type of crowd your playing for.

Update: The US Promotion has started through Sea to Sun Records, keep an ear open and an eye out for this new promo image!

Update Deux: It’s been released on Beatport and featured on the progressive house section. Check it out.

Update Three: It’s been released and promo’d worldwide now on iTunes and Amazon.

Check out the preview of my full vocal remix below.

With 18 Top 40 hits, Ash are one of the most successful ‘singles bands’ of recent times, consistently bothering our charts and airwaves with their distinctive, lovable and inventive pop. Rumor has it that they’ve sold over 8 million albums worldwide.

I’ve just completed a remix for the bands upcoming single “True Love 1980″, and what a treat it was. It turned out kind of retro with a definite 80’s feel, with bits that could be found in something along the lines of New Order/Depeche Mode/Pet Shop Boys.

This one just spent a month on the DMC charts topping at #11 on the DMC charts.

Update: The remix and dubstrumental are now for sale on Beatport!

A bit of crossover diva vocal house (and a dub!) for you in the Timothy Allan remix/dub when Jimmy D Robinson Presents Ceevox ‘At Midnight’.

It’s Tiff Lacey remix time!

Tiff has worked with heavy weights such as Headstrong, ATB, The Flash Brothers, Conjure One, Matt Darey, Lost Witness and Tenishia to name a small selective few. Tiff is now set to rock with the massive pop/dance hybrid “Someone Like You” produced by Pink Flood (aka Shane54).

The original of ‘Someone Like You’ is a heavenly slice of vocal trance laced with a beautiful chord structure, mesmerising riff and fused beautifully together with the catchy lyrics of Tiff Lacey. I’ve taken that original and made it a bit more bangtastic… According to Loverush Digital, I have delivered a progressive house masterpiece .

Feedback has been great so far from peeps like Matt Darey, Armin van Buurin, Suzy Solar, Paul Hughes and Mr. Sam giving it big points.

Just in case you were wondering, yes, I’ve also done up a dub mix for you guys who dig the track sans vocals.

Both tracks are now available at Beatport !

Update: The track has just gone #1 on the DMC World Trance Charts.

It’s not every day you get to type a headline like that! Our Hong Kong Blondes remix of Empire of the Sun has hit numero uno on the Cool Cuts chart over the pond in the UK. Needless to say, it’s a pretty cool notch on the belt.

The remix has also been almost 30 weeks(!!) in the ARIA club charts over here in Aus, the longest track on there currently. It’s a veteran, ha!

The Cool Cuts is the UK’s leading tastemaker dance chart compiled from reactions from tastemaker DJs and the Cool Cuts panel, now in it’s 21st year. The Cool Cuts is exclusively published in MUSIC WEEK, the UK’s leading music industry trade publication.

I’ve just had my winning entry released by the smashingly handsome guys at SmashBang! Records located in Melbourne, Australia. It was a furious race to the top of the remix pile, but just like the Highlander… there can be only one.

Thanks to the cool people who are the Lychee Martinis, and the dudes running SmashBang for putting this thing on. Thanks mostly to the people that voted
