Ready Mix Records celebrates its 21st Anniversary with this very special release featuring brand new remixes of John Creamer & Stephane K‘s 2001 classic ‘I Wish You Were Here’ by Martijn ten Velden aka MTV, Stan Kolev, Spieltape, Fabien Kamb, Music P & Marque Aurel and Khaaron.
Featuring sublime vocals from Nkemdi, ‘I Wish You Were Here’ was originally issued on 12” vinyl just after the turn of the Century and has since gone on to become a bona-fide house classic.
Legendary Dutch producer Martijn ten Velden is first up to rework ‘I Wish You Were Here’, slowing the original tempo, adding percussion, and building up a shimmering, rhythmic Afro groove to reflect those spine-tingling vocals to perfection.
Ready Mix regular Stan Kolev turns in a characteristically deep, progressive, atmospheric, and engaging remix. Stan re-arranges the vocal in his own special way and creates a spine-tingling epic break.
Label Boss BiG AL delivers a special breakless edit of Stan Kolev’s Remix, strictly for the heads. Spieltape dreams up a sparse and expansive version of ‘I Wish You Were Here’, with haunting synths and hypnotic chords riding a rock-solid rhythm.
Fabien Kamb gently guides ‘I Wish You Were Here’ into more progressive territory, with dramatic synths and a breathtaking breakdown.
German / Swiss duo of Music P and Marque Aurel turn back the clock with some classic arpeggios, sweeps and snare rolls in their Housier take on the track.
Finally, Robert R. Hardy and D.M.P., aka Khaaron, dreams up a melodious, faintly melancholic re-imagining of ‘I Wish You Were Here’, with echoing orchestral chords and a head-nodding groove.
Enjoy!
Release date: October 30th, 2020.
