MARK RONSON + MIIKE SNOW + BOY GEORGE
REMIXED: CONGOROCK, HERVE, HOLY GHOST!

Anybody that has happened to need a ride from me in the past 3 months knows that I'm addicted to the latest album from Mark Ronson, Record Collection, which has been blaring out my car stereo on repeat.  His ability to combine indie rock singers and rappers over a blend of influences from Fela to Duran Duran to David Axelrod... and still sound cohesive.... genius.  Keep in mind, I was not a fan of his last album, Version, which was released during the same period he worked with Amy Winehouse and Lilly Allen, ultimately earning him the producer of the year award at the Grammy's (beating out Timbaland!!!!  WTF!).

Despite my skepticism, the album won me over on the first listen and a major reason for this is the song "Somebody To Love Me".  The afro-pop dance groove features vocals by Miike Snow front man Andrew Wyatt and 80's icon Boy George.  Loneliness and yearning hasn't sounded this honest and danceable on wax in years.

We are bringing you 3 HOT Club remixes by Congorock, Herve aka The Count, and Brooklyn Disco revivalists Holy Ghost!  DOWNLOAD and make sure you check out the original later.
