This track was my entry to the Fxpansion / York remix competition. The song is a remix of vocal and a few guitar tracks by York feat Brandon Jones though it also contains a substantial amount of my own music including all the drums, Bass – and funky rhythm guit by Bri (mostly from my instrumental track ChillDance). Unfortunately it didn’t win, but I think it was maybe just the wrong style for the competition, and believing that helps me keep my pride.

OK so I didn’t win the remix competition but I still believed in my remix, which was an entirely different song so maybe went well beyond the remit of a remix. Anyway, last week I decided to seek out Brandon Jones (the singer) and see if he liked it. I found a Wikipedia entry for him and found a link to his record company.
I fired off a quick email introducing myself and the song, and hoping they would listen to it and like it. The reply I got back was that they “loved my version!” . Although they no longer represent Brandon it was suggested I might be able to work with some of their other artists in the future. The feedback I received is highly appreciated and encouraging.

Here’s the original song. If you play the video and set my track running then mute the video it doesn’t look too far out of place.
