gotta have a man who treats me right



As promised, today I'm offering up an old-school house remix from Kerri Chandler. In 1993, Shawn Christopher, a sometimes singer with Chicago weirdos the Thrill Kill Kult, recorded a fantastic vocal house track called "Make My Love" that Chandler remixed for the original release. Chandler's take on the track is in line with his trademark smooth, groovin' bass-lines, lush piano parts, and harmonic flourishes that bring the sound to the next level. Ms. Christopher's soulful vocals make the track a sure-fire slammer, as Chandler adds just enough reverb and delay to make her voice roll as smoothly as the bass. The heavy kicks, dry hi-hats and finger-snaps are all there, too, as one would expect from Chandler. Great to play out!

Now for a recommendation: head over to Random Circuits and download Kalim Shabazz's "Peak Bomb." It is hard-hitting, gorgeous deep house that has really been pleasing my ears for the past couple of days. Definitely a necessary track to get your hands on!

Tomorrow, a trip to the slower, smoother side of house!
