Amadou & Mariam – Sabali (Poor Ragged Rascal’s Future Funk Remix)

Posted on July 30th, 2009

Here is a another unofficial remix that started when I was trying to come up something for my dj sets. It’s some sort of future funk electro afro house blend. It’s a remix of Amadou & Mariam – Sabali. These two are quite a story, often known as “the blind couple from Mali”. They met at Mali’s Institute for the Young Blind, and found they shared an interest in music. They emerged from the underground last year and now find themselves opening for Coldplay. You can find out more about them here:

And you can buy the original song of “Sabali” here:

The remix will be included in my next podcast which will be uploaded August 1st. Feel free to leave your comments.

ADELE – Hometown Glory (Eola Heights Remix)

Posted on July 15th, 2009

Here is an unofficial remix of Hometown Glory by ADELE. The remix was done by myself (Poor Ragged Rascal) and Speak Easy. If you’d like to hear the original artist version just click the itunes link.

… All feedback is welcome, as it’s still a work in progress. The track keeps the same basic structure of the original song because it’s just about perfect in it’s ebb and flow as it is. There is an added section at the end for dj’s to mix out of. The song is best described as breakbeat future funk and neo soul. The bass line is in your face… enjoy.
