OD remixes Mood II Swing

May 1st, 2008

I recently teamed up with Fred Everything to remix “Closer” (originally released on King Street back in 1994) from the legendary Mood II Swing, You can check out an audio clip of our mix below.

It is available now on a very limited vinyl run of 1000 on my label Amenti Music. On the flip side of the vinyl you’ll find the original Swing To Mood Dub which has been lovingly remastered by Chris Alexander at Heathmans Mastering in London. Our mix will be available soon in digital formats from King Street Sounds.

Thank you!

April 2nd, 2008

Thanks to everyone who came to my two parties in Miami at the WMC! Both parties were wicked fun, great vibes all around!

Saturday night was a special one, I honestly had not expected a great turnout (I put together this party at the last minute) and yet we were at capacity by 11:15! Special thanks to all the DJs who played and extra special thanks to Fred Everything / Lazy Days and EVERYONE from the Solid Tokyo crew. Could not ask for better friends to do these events with. See you next year!
