[CLHR053] Hammer & Herbick feat. Boytronic - You

Image

Release Label: Coldharbour Recordings
Release Code: CLHR053
Release Date: September 8th 2008

Funabashi Remix
Blake Jarrell Vocal Mix
Blake Jarrell Instrumental Mix
Dyor Remix


The first of four releases on the Coldharbour imprint in September sees Mario Hammer, no stranger to followers of Coldharbour Recordings, team up with fellow German producer Herbick with a tough and groovy offering, with a little help from the past.

The roots can be traced to 25 years ago, where German electropop group Boytronic released You as their debut single. Inspired by this track from their youth, Hammer and Herbick decided to bring the track back to life for 2008, with a sprinkle of the modern electro groove.

The remix package is one to be reckoned with. First up are another German duo and Coldharbour favourites Funabashi, whose remix immediately struck a rapport with Markus Schulz, featuring the track several times on Global DJ Broadcast in the first quarter of the year. Their remix has gone on to receive further support from the likes of Matt Darey.

Chicago's Blake Jarrell, who has enjoyed a busy schedule in 2008, spent some time in the studio at the beginning of the summer to offer a typical groovy interpretation, with a beautiful string-based break that will appeal to many. Unsurprisingly, Blake's remix has featured prominently in his own sets, particularly at his Amnesia appearances in Ibiza through July and August. Blake's remix comes in both vocal and instrumental versions.

Last but not least, Italian Dyor delivers the first of two remixes. Having caught the imagination of many with his track Emotions, he delivers a tough and pulsating remix already receiving support from many DJs. A second remix, entitled the Dyor Big Room Remix, shall be released on the next edition of Coldharbour Selections in October.

[CLHR052] Mr. Pit feat. Vicky Fee - Back For More

Image

Release Label: Coldharbour Recordings
Release Code: CLHR052
Release Date: August 25th 2008

Back For More (Original Mix)
Back For More (Intro Mix)
Back For More (Funabashi Remix)
Back For More (Funabashi Dub)
Back For More (System22 Remix)


"I have been here once before, but still came back for more".

For many, they are the words one ponders when it comes to another annual pilgrimage to Ibiza. When Markus Schulz was presented with the task of composing his first Armada at Ibiza CD, beginning his musical journey with this track was a natural choice.

Hailing from Romania and hot off the heels of top-selling release Shana, Mr. Pit returns with Back For More, accompanied by vocalist Vicky Fee.

The original has that typical melodic vibe that fans have become accustomed to over the past few months. Vicky's vocals deliver a subtle yet contemplative take on many questions, of life, love and adventure.

Firstly on remix duty is a name synonymous with the origins of Coldharbour Recordings, and remains a prominent brand today, Funabashi. The German duo of Tom Porcell and Kevin Sieja offer their typical melodic bliss to the main lead, with groovy electro-laced undertones thrown in for good measure. This has proved to have been popular with Markus Schulz, particularly on his Evolution radio show.

Complimenting the package are duo Cody Williams and Sean Myracle, better known to many as System22. Known for their strong electro tendencies, they provide Back For More with a more raw and moody atmosphere.

Immediately striking a rapport with listeners of all the major radio shows, the track is destined to be remembered with fondness when 2008 comes to a close. And when it comes to determining which producers made the biggest impact this year, Mr. Pit's name will feature prominently in the thinking of many.

[CLHR044] Markus Schulz feat. Dauby - Perfect



Release Label: Coldharbour Recordings
Release Code: CLHR044
Release Date: March 31st 2008

Perfect (Agnelli & Nelson Remix)
Perfect (Funabashi Remix)
Perfect (Jerome Isma-Ae Remix)
Perfect (Jerome Isma-Ae Dub Mix)


The release of Perfect sees Markus Schulz team up with good friend Noel Sanger and wife Dauby. Perfect is the ultimate feel-good record, with catchy vocals guaranteed to put that little smile on your face. The remix package is arguably the strongest assembled for a Markus Schulz single release to date. Grabbing all the headlines unsurprisingly are Irish duo Agnelli & Nelson, following on from their massive remix of John O’Callaghan’s Big Sky. Their remix of Perfect can be described as such, perfect. It has received huge support from Markus Schulz himself, Armin van Buuren and Paul van Dyk.

Complimenting the huge Agnelli & Nelson remix are offerings made in Germany. Munich’s Jerome Isma-Ae has made waves in recent months with his productions and remixes, and his remix of Perfect is guaranteed to attract the progressive-house minded among us. Last but not least, Tom Porcell and Kevin Sieja team up under their Funabashi alias to give the pure Coldharbour interpretation of Perfect, and it has worked a treat so far, winning the Global Selection vote for two consecutive weeks in February.

Perfect has all the makings of being one of the biggest tracks in 2008, and there are only a matter of weeks to wait for the full official release. You can expect it to rock dancefloors throughout Miami during Winter Music Conference week.
