Frost & Wagner - Remixes - Soulful Lounge

Sehr gut

Remixes starts off with FROST & WAGNER’s Torch Of Freedom. Originally written by CLEVELAND WATKISS, this song has been rearranged by MATTHIAS VOGT’s jazz band project RE:JAZZ in 2002. FROST & WAGNER transformed it one year after into a wonderful slice of Jazz-roots Reggae that features the lovely voice of Soul diva JOY DENALANE. It is followed by She Walks Alone of Best Seven’s own EVA BE. Their treat gives a new intensity to the original tune that appears on EVA BE’s debut album Moving Without Travelling (SB CD0007/SB 7020). Their remix of TAXI’s A Certain Something highlights once again the charming voice of singer JO LAUNDY with laid-back drum parts and beautiful strings arrangements. FROST & WAGNER certainly have a thing for female vocals but male voices are equally inspiring for them and they prove it an impressive remix of TOSCA’s Superrob that features the soulful organ of EARL ZINGER and with remixes of BEN WESTBEECH’s So Good Today originally released on GILLES PETERSON’s Brownswood Recordings, of KABUKI and CLEVELAND WATKISS’s Speed Of Sound and of JAN DELAY’s Klar, all present on the compilation. From DEYAMPERT’s The Sweetest Desilusion to ONEJIRU’s We Carry On over to MATTHIAS VOGT TRIO’s The Look Into Your Eyes, all the remixes of FROST & WAGNER have these compelling Dub- Reggae grooves that makes you feel good after a few seconds and makes you dance after a few others. The crowning glory for Berlin’s Reggae duo comes with their remix of Everything of Sonar Kollektiv’s own CLARA HILL. They give a new depth to CLARA’s voice and build a soothing atmosphere around it with an extra groove that feels like the sun shining lightly over your head. In eleven tracks FROST & WAGNER will show you that remixers are wonderful artists too and with The Remixes (SBCD0009) Best Seven serves you once again eleven fragments of heaven.
