When the Funk Hits the Fan: The Remixes

From the Artist
"Being a DJ, I am fascinated by the numerous amount of remixes that come out. Most mixes don't come out due to certain circumstances. This package contains ten remixes from the Sylk 130 project that have interesting stories behind them. We thought it would be interesting to put them together for your enjoyment and tell the story behind each one." - King Britt

Customer Reviews:

The David Morales "Sleaze Mix" of THE REASON is hot!.......1999-05-24

Lemme explain. I'm from the school of thought, where, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! The original album is the BOMB! King Britt and his Philly collective put together that funk-soul fusion thats incredible. But this, a reworking of the album, can be best described as experimental. Memorable tracks include the stripped down, R n B remix of THE REASON, track 3, (Play Duplaix Mix). As usual Ms. Viki Miles' vocals sooth. Production team Mood II Swing make a guest appearance on WHEN THE FUNK HITS THE FAN working the echo chamber thang. The mix everyone was talking about, and the one people will be talking about for years to come is David Morales' "Sleaze Mix" for THE REASON. What more can I say, than "You go boy!" This **** is hot! "You're the reason that I touch ... the reason that I love you!" What a combination, David Morales on production, Vicki Miles on the vocals. Listen to that organ work! Now you know why Morales won the grammy.
