Pleased to present the second “Pink and Purple” remix – this one’s from Father Abraham, a top-notch Boston hip-hop emcee & producer extraordinaire. Abe is an old friend and a force to be reckoned with. He’s self-released several albums, and his current project, “52 Pickup,” is both impressive and borderline insane… The long-and-short of it is that he has set out to write, record, and produce a song a week for a year, which he then puts up for free download at his website www.52pickup.us. I believe he just released his 31st track…
Now, let me say that again… A SONG A WEEK FOR A YEAR, people… The scariest part is it’s all totally legit… SO MUCH hard work, creative juice, and determination needed to attack something like that. It actually reminds me in a way of Sufjan Stevens’ Illinois and Michigan albums from his 50 States Project – they both require a certain breed of meticulous/obsessive/ambitious human… Please visit 52 Pickup and download some tracks, see what Abe’s been cookin’ up!
And that brings me to today’s remix, “Pink and Purple (Father Abraham Black and Blue RMX),” (also the 28th installment at 52 Pickup). On it, Abe basically reworks the beat into an agressive hip-hop party jam, while slicing and dicing my vocals + synths, and then KILLS it on the mic… So cool.
Download it for FREE right here, and share it with your friends, tweet it, facebook it… Show some love & spread the word if you’re feeling it!!!
Any Phoenix lovers in the mix? I for one am a HUGE fan… have been for many years…
So you can imagine how thrilled I was when they posted the stems for remixers to their single, “1901,” from their upcoming release “Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix.” Naturally, I couldn’t resist slicing and dicing away at it…
