Continuing its quest to bring the world's most seductive, sensual and downright quality music to the masses, Vega Records presents 'Bahia', produced with love by Grammy Award -winner and label head Louie Vega.
The second in Vega Records' new series of tracks inspired by the musical landscapes of lands near and far, and following on from the Puerto Rican -inspired 'Ponce' of earlier this year, Louie Vega now presents a smooth, rolling track inspired by the Bahia region of Northeast Brazil , commonly referred to as the 'African Soul' of Brazil and the country's home of Afro-Brazilian culture.
It is here, in the tropical northeast of this music and dance-crazy country, where the African-inspired religion of Candomblé enjoys a huge following and where the Afro-Brazilian dance capoeira remains a daily part of life.
Bahia is a region stepped in history and culture and one where – from the pulsing centre of Salvador'sPelourinho to the peaceful beaches of Arembepe – the music-obsessed people live their lives to an inherent rhythm, the same rhythm contained in Vega Records' 'Bahia' .
Powerful drums, strings, eclectic instrumentation and an electronic edge make 'Bahia' a rolling masterpiece. Perfect to layer that accapella over or just to bounce to, 'Bahia' is as Brazilian as Samba and Carnivale , and will prove just as difficult to abstain from.
Vega Records continues to push the boundaries in releasing innovative, adventurous music that knows no cultural boundaries. From the lush landscapes of Brazil to the Caribbean archipelago of Puerto Rico to the crowded streets of New Jersey, the imprint continues to win praise for its efforts in spreading beautiful music worldwide, of which 'Bahia' is just the latest example.
Vega Records continues its new digital series with a collection of some of the hottest remixes ever released on the celebrated imprint. Featuring a heavy dose of French house flavour mixed with Latin, American and world rhymes and flavours, 'VEGA ALLSTAR REMIXERS' is set to continue Vega Records winning run into 2008.
As the international dance music community prepares for the annual Winter Music Conference in Miami, Vega Records are intent on heating up dancefloors ahead of schedule and 'VEGA ALLSTAR REMIXERS' is sure to do just that, being an adventurous package featuring deep, minimal, tribal and latin influences, but all containing the fierce groove synonymous with Vega Records .
Starting off with a decidedly French flavour, Lower East Side native Mr V.'s worldwide smash 'Put Your Drink Down' is given the remix treatment by Parisian House veteran Bob Sinclar before Grammy Award-winning musician and Vega Records head Louie Vega chips in his seminal remix of songbird Sara Devine's modern day classic, 'Special' . Vega's own Elements Of Life collective follow with their beautiful 'Mon Amour' featuring the sweet vocals of Anané, though here it further benefits from the inimitable remix talents of DJ Gregory.
Glenn Underground's tough dub of Ricardo Miranda and Latin Soul Brotha's 'Termino Mi Amor' follows before the 'Queen Of Queens' – Soni - reassures us all that she is indeed 'Here To Stay' and, with Lower East Side native Filsonik on mix duties, the Big Apple's House scene is certainly in good hands!
Elements Of Life step up to the plate again with 'Journey's Prelude', their track with Philly's own socially-switched on Ursula Rucker, here remixed by Frankie Feliciano , before we get another dose of a deep and raw version of Martin Solveig and Stephy Haik 'Cabo Parano' , given the remix treatment by main man Claude Monnet .
Soulfuric Records' Brian Tappert and Marc Pomeroy, also known as the critically-acclaimed remix and production duo of Jazz & Groove, chip in a remix of Elements Of Life's own bossa-inspired 'Mozalounge' , while the collective - consisting of Luisito Quintero , Raul Midon , Louie Vega and, of course, Anané - round off this stellar 'Remixers & Producers' selection with DJ Spinna's remix of their track 'A Better Day' and then, a spectacular 16 minute version of Joe Clausell's remix of 'Sunshine' , their collaboration with Blaze , available digitally for the first time ever HERE on VEGA ALLSTAR REMIXERS !
Make no mistake, 'VEGA ALLSTAR REMIXERS' has something for everybody, combining the varied talents of some of the House music collective's most respected names to booty-shaking, dancefloor ramming-effect.
DJ Gregory was one of the first pioneering French producer to sink his teeth firmly into the little known world of House music. From Paris, to New York, London and Tokyo, he travelled to hone his production and DJ techniques and absorbing everything and anything House.
After spinning at the most fashionable joints in Europe alongside such greats as Frankie Knuckles, Tedd Patterson and Phil Asher, he decided to found his own label, named Faya Combo, and it was the success of one of the first releases on the label; ’Damelo’ that lead to Gregory become a serious name on the club circuit.
‘Faya Combo Sessions’ is a collection of new and freshly remixed tracks, from the inspirational and charismatic DJ Gregory. These productions and remixes are emphatically Gregory – rolling, tribal beats, deep, dark drums and African-inspired percussion.
