Your Summer Song

Exile - who threw a 12″ inch into my hands at Dourfestival last year – has now made a remix of “Your Summer Song” which was on his last album called Radio. For this wonderful remix, he invited the lovely J. Mitchell onto the track. It ads a wonderful vibe to the track, I’m loving the video as well. So head outside, turn the volume open and enjoy this wonderful piece of music.

Original vs Remix

My all-time favorite remix is one by J Dilla, he took Without You – a slow and laidback song/ballad – and turned it into a super smooth banger.

Lucy Pearl is an awesome group often overlooked, they bring Soulful R&B, two members of the group should ring a bell, Raphael Saadiq and Ali Shaheed Muhammad (from A Tribe Called Quest). It’s hard for me again to decide between these two, so you tell me, do you like a smooth ballad or a banging Dilla-remix? Enjoy! 

The Original by Lucy Pearl – Without You

The Remix by J Dilla AKA Jay Dee AKA  James Dewitt Yancey

PS: I didn’t put the Dwele remix on here, because I just don’t feel that one..
