Check out the preview video, and get the rest of the details here! Producing House Music with Ableton Live: Arrangement & FX

Out July 21, 2010 on the slamming Toolroom Records is the re-rub by Dave and Funkagenda, with myself and D. Ramirez on the remix duties.

Two of house music’s most highly sought after talents in Funkagenda and Dave Seaman team up for
Toolroom Trax’s next release, a devilishly dark re-rub of ‘The Mighty Ming’.

Having conquered both the underground and commercial floors, Dave Seaman has enjoyed success for well over a decade with remixes and productions for the likes of New Order through to Michael Jackson and shows no intention of resting on his laurels with this superb release. Funkagenda continues to impress with his unique, forward-thinking productions and stunning DJ sets moving the biggest global dancefloors from Ministry of Sound, London to Space, Ibiza.

‘The Mighty Ming’ is a monstrous track that takes you on a dark and distinctive foray into some gritty tones. A sharp, resonating bass grinds away beneath some tight beats and oriental tinted percussion. Eastern tinged stabs punch through the mix with vocal cuts and side-chained pads propelling this into a peak time bomb.

On remix duties is the sublime D.Ramirez, providing a mighty remix in his own inimitable style. He combines an old school flavour with warm, crisp synths and a euphoric breakdown that will have the party-goers raising their hands in the air. Timothy Allan completes the remix package on a deeper note with flickering percussion, deep bass tones and a mix of arpeggios and driving synths making for a great take on the original.

Update: She’s out! Go replace that DJ rip you’ve been playing out with a fresh 320 version iTunes Link

The tracks range from the quirky “Bugger It” which was the remix fodder for the successful remix comp from last month, to the chuggy “Listening to a Sample” and finally the darker “Try Outs”.

Check it out on Beatport!

Update: Previews are a go!

The track “Listening To A Sample” was an idea that stemmed from the watermark I put on my website preview tracks. I ended up making a whole track about it! Check out the preview of the funk below the cover image.

The Shrink Reloaded – Nervous Breakdown 2010 gets the Timothy Allan treatment, Armand Van Helden style jacking beats and that riff which will send you into a nervous breakdown.

I’ve finished it only a few days ago and so far it’s the “Big Tune of the Week” on Energy FM in the UK, and is having it’s clubbing debut thanks to Fatboy Slim at the opening of Space Ibiza 2010… Massive!!

edit: Fatboy Slims comments after playing it at Space:

“10 out of 10. It sounds huge on a big system and the crowd were loving getting tweaked by it
Top marks all round
X Norm”

Update 2: Top 10 on the DMC Buzz Chart for a few weeks starting June 20, 2010

Update 3: Some guy named David Guetta just dropped it two weeks in a row on his Fuck Me I’m Famous radio show Who knew!

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.

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!

Currently out on promo only!

Update:
The track debuted at #1 on the US Billboard Breakout charts, went to #2 on the DMC World Chart and hit #2 on the Music Week Club Charts over in the UK.

 Update again:
Just found out that my remix has been submitted for a Grammy award!

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.
