Black Bridge Crew Remixes Gramatik on Cold Busted



Slovenia's Gramatik has been totally crushing it in the downtempo world in the past year. Denver's own Cold Busted label (owned and operated by the one and only Vitamin D) has been the host of this fine newcomer. Cold Busted has just released four new remixes of Gramatik’s ‘Tearin’ It Up’ taken from the Street Bangerz Vol. 2 release:
 

Astro Raph Soul Of The Galaxy Mix
Drop Logik’s Tore Down Rerun
Spaceflight Orchestra Remix
What It Is Remix By 1st Lieutenant Middle St.
 

Also included on the release is the previously unreleased track ‘Straight Off The Block’ done up in true Street Bangerz style.

Available exclusively on Beatport for the next few weeks.

Black Bridge’s finest producers and friends break down and remix their favorite Spaceflight Orchestra tracks.

First up is a remix by Germany’s rising star of funk, Quincy Jointz. Qunicy is widely known as one half of the duo, Geriba, as well as extensive remix work for the top tier of funk breakbeat artists including work on a wide variety of labels including Ft. Knox, Timewarp, and Aniligital. This is a mellow groove down happy times lane with lilting cowbell and mellow tron stabs. Sprinkles of horn’s and nice trippy breakdowns round out the dub synths on this lazy joint.

1st Lieutenant Middle St. flex’s his funk muscle on the “Lead Jammer” remix. Diving kick drum and a stompy break ride out a groovetastic bongo sample into the funky promised land. Synths fired from the mothership and deranged slide guitar licks swell together and create a driving funky fever.

Astro Raph’s “Love Machine Remix” of “What it Shall Be” puts James Brown in a blender set to a schizophrenic puree. Oceanic washes and deep synths dance a dizzying tango with the beat, dropping you off into pristine spaces, only to be swooped up again and sent down the groovy train express. Astro Raph’s brilliant production and twisted sequencing keep the listener on a rolling mental water slide.

Drop Logik’s “Soft Intake” remix of “Solid” is just that - a beautiful cotton puff of a track that falls on the ear as if delivered by a summer breeze.  That is if the cotton was grown on Venus and the breeze originated in the Andromeda Galaxy. Add to that a funky alien synth and syncopated rhythm and you get a goregusly crafted track that will most likely increase your I.Q. upon first listen.

New Release: Spaceflight Orchestra - An Orchestra of Remixes, Volume One


ARTIST: Spaceflight Orchestra
RELEASE: An Orchestra of Remixes, Volume One
TRACKLISTING:
1. Step Now (J-Boogie Remix feat. Aima the Dreamer)
2. Step Now (J-Boogie Instrumental feat. Aima the Dreamer)
3. Step Now (J-Boogie Acapella feat. Aima the Dreamer)

J-Boogie (of OM Records’ J-Boogie’s Dubtronic Science fame), purveyor of all things funky, takes his remix of Spaceflight Orchestra’s “Step Now” into deep sexy waters. Head nodding funk, soul claps, and sultry vocals from Aima the Dreamer wrap up this gem of a track like a silk sheet dipped in melted butter. “Don’t sweat the petty things baby, you can pet my sweaty thing baby”, is the PG-13 rated chorus that urges people to let the less pressing issues of the day go by the wayside in favor of hot and heavy lovemaking:  a fine theme for this skillfully executed re-work. We’ve also popped in a bonus accapella and instrumental for DJing pleasure. Keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming video!

Add in Drop Logik’s mondo psychedelic “Refreak” remix of “Truer than True”, and you’ve got one of the hottest Black Bridge releases to date!!
