Terry Childs (our CD) is part of 'The Good Life…', a new initiative within the agency to explore the role music can play in digital brand communications. We will be sharing / producing music and putting on parties to explore this media and how consumers react to it and how it stimulates community communications. The first phase of activity is the production of a Top 10 Chart of dance music old and new:
1) Billy Paul – East (Remix – Moton Edit). http://www.mediafire.com/?woxonnqmtth
One of souls top boys gets the moton treatment from a 2003 remix with a killer bassline.
2) Bim Marx – Stronger. http://www.mediafire.com/?cj5ztdlztzg
A deep house mix of Loletta Holloways 'We're getting stronger', it has the MoodyMan feel (which is meant as a compliment!).
3) De Lite – Wild Times (2009 Edit). http://www.mediafire.com/?yomimgkmwzn
An edit that brings an acid house classic bang up to date.
4) DOP – Take Me (Remake). http://www.mediafire.com/?nqjzvdzlnlw
Dub House Disco – it was a great period in music producing some great tunes, here is one that is relevant now – piano magic.
5) Runaway – Use Me. http://www.mediafire.com/?m4zdmmd1omy
Deep haunting beats with sleazy new york vocal borrowed from old Stevie V 'Dirty Cash' track! It works…
6) Seven Grand Housing Authority – The Question. http://www.mediafire.com/?t1dgj1gtjrm
A early 90's classic – Terrence Parker created one of the best piano moments in house. This rocked it back then and does now.
7) SIS – Dim Dim. http://www.mediafire.com/?jzzgwy2yoxt
The B side to the rather massive minimal hit from last year 'Nesrib'. This takes us off to Carl Craigs house of deepness.
8) The Detroit Experiment – Think Twice (Mark E Pressure Dub). http://www.mediafire.com/?oizfz5nmmiz
How do you update a timeless moment of tech-soul. Get mister edit Mark E to turn it into a 10 minute cosmic tranced out disco monster.
9) Voyage – Souvenirs (Steve Algozino Remix). http://www.mediafire.com/?otg04nwmttn
A real disco production, with strings, drums, funky guitar and a huge layer of camp! Steve Algozinos remix loses the vocals and pushes it to the credible dancefloor.
10) Will Powers – Smile. http://www.mediafire.com/?oyzwuczmywz
We all know 'Adventures in Success' but this track is a neglected bizarre gem. My anthem for 2009 – and god we need it.
We will be running a party in May and for more information join the Facebook Group http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=66706213437
