SummersRadio™ New Cover + Classic! Emmanuelle Seigner - 'You Think You're A Man' (Jean Tonique Remix)/ Divine - 'You Think You're A Man' (Original Extended Remix)
French actress and singer Emmanuelle Seigner is releasing a new EP next week called 'You Think You're A Man'! 'You Think You're A Man' is a cover of Divine's 1984 underground club hit. The EP will feature two remixes - one by Yuksek and this one by Jean Tonique. Seigner - who's married to director Roman Polanski - is releasing the EP next week - March 17th on Universal.
Jean Tonique's remix of 'You Think You're A Man' is a full on disco/ funk makeover complete with Nile Rodgers style funky guitars and great strings... Enjoy!
Bonus Track! Emmanuelle Seigner's choice of a song to cover is awesome - but nothing can match the vitriol of Divine's delivery on the original. This is the original 'Extended Version' produced by Barry Evangeli and Pete Waterman in all it's cowbell induced glory... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Piatto - 'Not Satisfied' (Original Mix)
Piatto are a duo from Italy consisting of brothers Alessandro and Davide Piatto - who've just released a new EP called 'Not Satisfied'!
The 'Not Satisfied' EP features three tracks - the original plus remixes from Perfect Stranger and Kirill Mixer. It's released on the IAMT (Iamtechno) label and it's currently available exclusively on Beatport: http://www.beatport.com/release/not-satisfied/1049931
The 'Original Mix' of 'Not Satisfied' features samples from a couple of underground club classics - the vocal line '... I'm just not satisfied' is borrowed from Divine's 1982 club hit 'Native Love (Step By Step)' produced by Bobby Orlando - and the keyboard sample (surfacing around 1:15 in) is from the 1978 post-punk industrial classic 'Warm Leatherette' from The Normal aka producer Daniel Miller which was the first release ever on the Mute Records label... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ Classic! Dead Or Alive - 'Lover Come Back To Me' (Evolution Mix) It has been said that no music is truly original. Every artist is influenced by everything they've ever heard, either consciously or subconsciously. A lot of new club tunes lately have reminded me of the production sounds of Giorgio Moroder and Bobby Orlando - and also the early production work of Stock Aitken Waterman - with artists like Divine and Dead Or Alive - before they turned themselves into a very bland hit factory.
(I actually started this post and saved it into drafts a couple times - but after posting a couple tracks from the new Poker Flat Recordings compilation 'Forward To The Past' earlier today I thought it was time to publish it!)
When I posted the new Hertz & Subway Baby song 'Rejoice' (yesterday) I was instantly reminded of this club classic from Dead Or Alive. 'Lover Come Back To Me' was released in 1985 as the follow up to their number one smash 'You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)' from their Youthquake album - and this particular remix is available on their 2003 hits compilation called 'Evolution'. The production is amazing on this one - I particularly love the breakdown about 3 and a half minutes in... Enjoy!
Try not to be too distracted by singer Pete Burns antics and compare the music to the new track from Hertz & Subway Baby..
(I love this sound - I just think it's important to know the influences as well - Cheers!)
