Listen to the remix here

Doghouse Riley’s remix just got an editorial pick from TERU:

“…I hear a hit from 1967 (Motown) or 1987 (Mod revival) in this great remix of dripmanila. And wail, it’s about time ol’ Doghouse Riley got an ED pick. ; )”

here’s some of the reviews of the remix:

“…Could have ended with my review after 23 seconds, but still wanted to listen to the rest of it. If there is a true follower of Phil Spector, it could be for sure Doghouse Riley fo ma thankin.
There seem to be two sort of producers: DR and those who can´t reach him!
Love always the humour and profesionality that you combine in your tracks!…”

“…more wickedness from the pound!

ok - finally I have a couple of extra minutes to write a few more words:

My first reaction was just this really big grin, because if this music can’t put a happy smile on your face, you’re having a really bad day. Of course my previous comment about wickedness is based on the chasm between the emotion of the lyrics and the emotion of this remix And your note about PS illustrating the chasm that can exist between the music and the man (he’s not the only one either!) serves as an almost eerie parallel to your remix. And that ends up triggering kind of deep questions below the smile. A little like an old Woody Allen movie - lots of laughs while watching and then the deep thoughts sneak up on you. If that’s not wicked, what is?

On an a technical level, the period/genre homage is just striking - the attention to detail from the harmonies to the horns, from the piano to the drums. So professional, yet so playful. How do you do it?…”
“…Yes, it sure as hell feels like it’s 1967! Great job on orchestration and creating that vintage vibe. Love the horns…and that baritone sax! Mega Woof!…”

“…get out the white go go boots, go down town and yell at the H & R Block lady for the audit letter you got in the mail- everything is so taxing- but nice little Ronettey re mix here- Mick Ronson has nothing on you…”

“…Whooo YEAH I’m lovin’ this!! The Funk Brothers vibe fo sho! You just need a reverby tambourine and some electric sitar to make the picture complete. Damn, did this put a big stupid grin on my face …”

“Nice…VERY nice! I like everything about this! I swear I keep waiting for Smokey to jump in somewhere on harmony or something!!! And the illest thing of all is how it sounds retro & contemporary at the same time. Too
Sexy!!! …”

“…Is this your Larry Levine tribute?
If so I’m sure he’d be dancing in the aisles to this one!..”

“…What the hell just happend….
Is this for real?:D
Do you do seminars to?
Bad ass DR…”

“…Sugar pie honey bunch…( me singing )…..yeah this is hot….!!!!! Motown, 60s and new school…..Very well done DHR. …”

“…Oh yea, that’s gro-o-o-vy… Course I’m too young to really remember the sixties (and no it wasn’t the drugs) but had I been listening to music back then I would have liked music like this, because I do now.

Not bad for a dog ;-)….”

“…hell yes. wall of sound indeed. …”

check out how DR did it!
