The Come On, Come On (Part II) - EP features all new remixes that take the unique track into completely different sonic territories. In their gorgeous downtempo remix, NYC indie rock legends Dean & Britta (formerly of Luna) re-imagine the song into an intimate electronic chill-out meets psychedelic rock ballad with beats, keys, and dreamy vocals by Britta Phillips and tripped-out space guitars by Dean Wareham (Galaxie 500). Scott Hardkiss himself delivers his own signature eclectic, uplifting club mix with both vocal and dub versions, an anthemic tribute to all the old school Hardkiss-heads that effortlessly shifts between breaks and 4/4 beats. The mythical Joaquin "Joe" Claussell (Body & Soul/ Sacred Rhythm) unleashes two brand new remixes that push the boundaries of dance music by combining fiery house & techno with experimental jazz in a new way that’s sure to bring the more adventurous dancefloors to their knees. Electro-funk master DJ Phunkae (Real Hype/ Kick It) brings it all back home and tips his hat to the funky 90’s US breaks style that first Scott made famous. It’s a seriously fun breakbeat jam, also available here in both vocal and instrumental versions. NOTE: WAV files are available by request.

Steadily gaining more and more kudos on an international level, Switchstance Recordings presents its next installment of dope beats and advanced sounds. Where We Live is the new EP rolling out of the studio from Protassov, beatsmith and psychedelist from the dark heart of the German Ruhr area.

Three all-new tracks make up the EP. Starting with “Where We Live (Part II),” it digs right into slow-motion spheres, while providing a mellow jazz vibe. The deep and tender “A New Beginning (Reloaded)” presents Protassov’s well-known day-dreamy side, and the EP closes strong with the straight-marching, head-nodding and catchy “Love Is Easy.” On Where We Live, Protassov takes another step forward with his beat mystifications.

DJ PROMO: Scott Hardkiss - “Come On, Come On” EP featuring Lisa Shaw w/ Remixes by Morgan Geist and Joe Claussell

October 1st, 2009

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Dance music legend Scott Hardkiss unleashes an extra-special package with the 2nd EP off his highly-acclaimed full-length album, Technicolor Dreamer.  ”Come On, Come On” is reminiscent of Scott’s groundbreaking early work “Raincry,” blending funky breakbeats with a dreamy, uplifting & atmospheric vibe and futuristic electronics. He’s taken the vibe to the next level with a heartbreakingly beautiful vocal by the much-loved Lisa Shaw of Salted & Naked Music and a soul-dripping track that’s already being hailed as a future classic.  Presented along with the DJ-friendly Original, Instrumental, & Acappella mixes, the EP also includes extraordinary club remixes from two more of the world’s finest DJ/producers. 

The legendary Joaquin “Joe” Claussell of Body & Soul and Sacred Rhythm puts his hands, mind and spirit on “Come On, Come On” and came out with over an hour’s worth of multiple mind-blowing mixes. This digital DJ promo includes his sunrise-ready “Sacred Rhythm Suite,” a truly magnificent 15-minute epic journey that’s bound to become an organic house classic, gorgeously weaving together Lisa’s voice with live piano, Latin guitar, tribal percussion & African choir “The Voices of Mali,” as well as an accompanying instrumental version. Yet another modern NYC master, Morgan Geist of Metro Area and Environ fame, gives the song his own classic electronic feel with his retro-futuristic remix in a techno/new-wave style that brilliantly reworks Scott’s own vocal contribution & synth arpeggios together. The 80’s flavored beats, synths & sounds bring the track simultaneously into nu-disco and New Order territory. NOTE: AIFF files are available by request
