Teen Queens - I Love How You Love Me (@RP!e ClassicbeaT Mix)

I am not so sure if you knew about the singer itself - Teen Queens. What I knew they were from Australia, and 3 beautiful women.

About the song, it's an old song which sung by many people before their turn. Bobby Vinton, Beth Orton, Paris Sisters ever sang this song before. It's an oldies one around 1968.

To make this remix become a dance song, i choose a classic looping beat from Eric B Rakim - Paid In Full as looping beat. I used reverse style to the loop beat to make it difference.

Black Box - Fall Into My Love (@RP!e Soul Mix)

Black Box (later Blackbox) was an Italo-house music group popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The members of the group included a trio made up of a club DJ (Daniele Davoli), a classically trained clarinet teacher (Valerio Semplici) and a keyboard and electronic music "wiz" (Mirko Limoni.). In 1989, the trio teamed up with singer / model Catherine Quinol(a.k.a. Katrin) and formed Black Box. By early 1990, Martha Wash was engaged to perform vocals on a number of tracks which, Ms. Wash was apparently told, were ostensibly for club consumption and weren't for mass-release.

But this time, i select a different style of them. It's a jazzy song from Black Box. Fall Into My Love is in the Positive Vibration album which released on 1996.

For this remix, i used Brotherhood Creed - Helluva as a looping beat.

Jacky - Shame On Me (@RP!e Boy's Extended Mix)

Who does know this song? Do you remember Catatan Si Boy? This song is an OST of Catatan Si Boy 3. Created by Youngky Soewarno, and performed by Jacky. Not so much info about him.
About the song itself, it's a combination of rap & hip-hop, and again Milli Vanilli was very famous at that time. So, you can imagine how the song looks like.
I tried to extend this song by giving a proportional intro & outro, and breaks to make easier during mixing. Nothing change on the BPM, leave it as it used to be.

Ronny Jordan - Come With Me (@RP!e Jazz On ClubMix)

One of the acid jazz movement's most prominent guitarists, London-born Ronny Jordan is widely credited with returning the instrument to its rightful place as a major force in modern-day jazz; despite outcries from purists, few other artists of his era proved more pivotal in knocking down the long-immutable boundaries of contemporary black music. The son of a preacher, Jordan's early musical history was rooted in gospel; his first public performances were with gospel groups, but the outbreak of Brit-funk during the early '80s led him to begin exploring other avenues of music, culminating in a fascination with jazz. A self-taught guitarist, his early influences included Charlie Christian, Wes Montgomery, and Grant Green, and when hip-hop began to take off, Jordan started exploring ways to fuse jazz and rap together. The first fruit of his endeavors was the single "After Hours," a primitive foray into what would eventually become known as acid jazz. Record companies initially wanted no part of Jordan's music, but when his distinctive cover of the Miles Davis classic "So What" became a hit, it was clear something was afoot. He soon released his debut LP, 1992's Antidote, but it was rapper Guru's breakthrough 1993 album, Jazzmatazz, Vol. 1, on which Jordan's guitar work was prominently featured, that made acid jazz a viable proposition. He subsequently issued such albums as 1993's Quiet Revolution, 1996's Light to Dark, and 2000's Brighter Day.

I got this single from Jazz Moods, Vol. 2 [Telstar] - 1994 and you can have it too from his album Quiet Revolution - 1993. I like this song a lot when hearing at the first time, and finally I decided to do a remix on it.

The remix is done at 103 BPM, with "Ooops Up !!!" by Snap! as a looping beat. The remix is really groovy and funky, bring you to a different atmosphere. That's the reason I used "Jazz on ClubMix" terms, in order to describe it.

Kylie Minogue - Let's Get To It (@RP!e Extended Mix)

Kylie Ann Minogue, born 28 May 1968 is an Australian Grammy and BRIT award-winning pop singer, songwriter and actress. Minogue rose to prominence in the late 1980s through her role in the Australian television soap opera Neighbours, before she commenced her career as a pop artist in 1987.

Signed to a contract by British songwriters and producers Stock, Aitken & Waterman in 1988, she achieved a string of hit records throughout the world. Her popularity began to decline during the early 1990s, leading her to part company from Stock, Aitken & Waterman in 1992. During the mid to late 90s, Minogue distanced herself from her earlier work and attempted to establish herself as a credible and independent performer and songwriter. Her projects were widely publicised, but her albums failed to attract a substantial audience and resulted in the lowest sales of her career to date. She returned to popularity as a pop artist in 2000, and became well-known for her elaborate music videos and expensively mounted stage shows.

In Australia and Europe, Minogue has become one of her generation's most recognisable celebrities and sex symbols. In Australia, after being dismissed early in her career by some critics, she has been widely acclaimed for her many achievements.

Let's Get to It is the fourth album by Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue. It was released by PWL on October 14, 1991. It was well received by music critics, and it was described as being "superior" to Minogue's previous album releases. Let's Get to It was a top twenty album in both Minogue's native Australia and the United Kingdom, and has sold 800,000 copies worldwide since its release.

This mix is an extended version, since none were made before. I give a necessary intro and outro, also break, to make it easily for mixing.

Trio Rio - New York Rio Tokyo (@RP!e Runs 4 ClubMix)

Trio Rio is a German band. Despite the name, the band is a quintet originating from Hamburg. The band was founded in 1983 by the vocalist Peter Fessler (born 1959) together with four friends. The music style is a combination of Latin rhythm and Rock. The band is famous with one song titled New York - Rio - Tokyo which was number one in German chart in 1986. The second single titled Voulez Voulez Vouz was a flop. The band was separated in 1990.

This mix is run at 120 BPM, slightly faster than the original one. Mixed with using 'You Set My Heart On Fire' from Evans & Fischer as looping beat.

Samantha Fox - Another Woman (Too Many People) (@RP!e Extended Mix)

I guess most of you knew Samantha (Sam) Fox well and her hits. But, i don't think you ever heard this single "Another Woman (Too Many People) yet.

It's a sweet low BPM dance music, which you can use it for warming up session. Released in 1991 as her fourth album "Just One Night", but not as successful as her previous ones.

Nothing special on this mix, I just try to extend and re-cut the single. I let this mix at the original BPM. I change the sequence, give a proportional intro & outro also a break, easier to be used for spinning.

Barbara Streisand - Woman In Love (@RP!e Keep II Soul Mix)

This woman is something what we called a miracle, because she is so multi-talent. Barbara Streisand is a gift to entertainment industry. She has so many hits. Here is one of them, Woman In Love.

"Woman in Love" is a popular 1980 song by Barbra Streisand from the album Guilty. After the success of the Bee Gees in 1977/1978 there was some time to perform songwriting for other artists and Barbra Streisand asked Barry Gibb to write an album for her. This album ultimately became the most successful album. "Woman in Love" was written by Barry and Robin Gibb and became the most successful song of Streisand's music career and spent a total of three weeks at the #1 position on the Billboard chart and also three weeks at number one on the UK chart. It went on to reach the top on almost all of the charts it entered.

This mix is made at 98 BPM with Soul II Soul - Keep On Moving as looping beat. I add a small part of Soul II Soul Megamix as an intro.

Lauren Wood - Fallen (@RP!e WildMix)

What do you have in your mind whenever saw this picture? Bring you back to those old sweet memories ? Do you remember this part, when they wanted to go out together for watching the opera? This song is played in the background.
Yup, it's from Pretty Woman OST, Lauren Wood with Fallen.

This remix is done at 100 BPM (close to the original BPM), using Wild Thing sampling as looping beat. I add Tone Loc's rap as a part of the remix, when I found it totally suite for this remix.

Nothing much change, because I want to keep this song elegant and sweet to let our memories back to the movie.
This remix is delayed for such a long period. I can not find the right looping beat which perfectly match each other.

So, i hope you like and enjoy this mix!!

Color Me Badd - Close To Heaven (@RP!e Close To ClubMix)

This single is one of my favorite, released in 1993. And it's on the album Time & Chance only, you cannot find it as a single.

Actually this remix was for last Valentine day, but i could not finish it up.
I was run out of idea, until last night.
Finally, i started from scratch again. I decided to use only BVSMP - I Need You as a looping beat, took the 1st bar from Los Del Rios - Macarena as a background for rap section.
The rap section was from BVSMP, i cut it from 'I Need You' and try to put it at the right time and place.
This mix is made at 100 BPM (close to the original 99.3 BPM).

It's a simple remix and i let it flow as what it is.

Kool & The Gang - Cherish (@RP!e Mix)

This remix was also made by me last year. One of my MP-friend asked me to mix it with Ditty from Paper Boy as a looping beat.

So this remix is classic and sweet as well as the song itself.

I made a special intro and outro for this remix.

I don't have anything to say about Kool & The Gang. They are well known, especially in the 80s era.

Betharia Sonata - Kau Tercipta Untukku (@RP!e 2Sweet Mix)

I made this remix last year when i had nothing to do. I use one of my favorite classic looping beat, sampling from Caron Wheeler - Living In The Light.

Why this song is published?
I want to show to everyone even a Sweet Indonesia Pop also follow 8 bar concept. Therefore, you can easily do a mixing. But actually, i need to do a little restructuring to get it perfect for mixing.

About this song itself was very famous in the 80s, where sweet pop music was very dominant on Indonesian pop music history. Written by one of King of pop song writer - Rinto Harahap.

Betharia Sonata - the singer is also very famous as one of sweet pop singer. She made many hits for this category.

By doing this remix, i hope it still has the sweet pop effect, but we can do it with dancing instead of singing.

VST & Co - Disco Fever (@RP!e Fever ClubMix)

Actually, the 1970s is the disco era. Foreign performers such as the Bee Gees, ABBA and Donna Summer influenced the disco fever in the Philippines. VST and Company is a Filipino disco fever icon in the Philippines.
The band started in the 1970s with Vic Sotto, now a famous comedian, who also wrote songs for the group and performed "Disco Fever" with VST. The band consisted of different Filipino musicians time after time until they collided in the 1980s.
The band performed disco fever favorites such as "Rock Baby, Rock", "Awitin Mo, Isasayaw Ko" and "Magsayawan". Because it is a Manila sound group, VST and Company also used Tagalog-English lyrics in some hits like "Etcetera". Yet some songs are romantic, and they're like Kundiman jingles mixed with disco fever.
Such romantic songs are "Ikaw Lang Ang Aking Mahal" (You Are my Only Love), "Kiss...Kiss", "Ipagpatawad Mo" (Forgive Me), "Etcetera", "Iswing Mo Ako" (Swing Me), "Awitin Mo, Isasayaw Ko" (Sing it, I'll dance it) and "Binibini" (Maiden).
The band is a big contributor to the Manila sound era because of a lot of disco fever songs that until now are disco classics.
Their music can give a flashback to the days of the love bus, hippie hairdos, groovy discos and peace signs... the 1970s.

I made this remix by using Staying Alive (Ultimix) looping beat to capture and bring in the Bee Gees atmosphere.

Titiek Puspa - Apanya Dong (@RP!e Swing Mix)

As it's my first "home-made" remix in 2008, here is (Eyang) Titiek Puspa with Apa (apa) - nya Dong.
Mixed with the classic swing beat at 123 BPM gives a new taste of energy, and makes this song is so funky and really powerful.
As (eyang) Titiek Puspa never looks like a grandma, so (I believe) this song are reflection of her, feels so fresh, funky, and makes you wanna go to the dance floor right away.

So, be ready to shake your body and dance all day all night.
Let the rhythm take control !!!
