SummersRadio™ New Music! Green Velvet & Harvard Bass!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Green Velvet & Harvard Bass - 'Lazer Beams' (Original Mix)

Green Velvet and Harvard Bass have just released a new single called 'Lazer Beams'! The duo have already released one of the year's finest club tunes - 'Kickin It' - from their 'Jumbo Mumbo' EP which you can revisit here: http://summersradio.blogspot.ca/2012/03/summersradio-new-music-green-velvet.html

Like 'Kickin It', 'Lazer Beams' is a likely contender for my Best Of 2012 countdown. The one track single is released on the Relief Records label and it's currently available exclusively on Beatport m'here: http://www.beatport.com/#downloads/available

The song is cleverly based around an ominous keyboard sample from Frankie Goes To Hollywood's massive single 'Relax' which was produced by Trevor Horn. They also utilize the 'Hit me with those lazer beams' line but this is no cover song - it's an exciting new acid techno tinged journey that transcends time and space... Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Green Velvet & Harvard Bass!

SummersRadio™ New Music! Green Velvet & Harvard Bass - 'Kickin It' (Original Mix)

Chicago electronica/ techno legend Curtis Jones aka Green Velvet (among other monikers) has teamed up with San Diego dj/ producer Victor Ramos aka Harvard Bass for his newest release! The pair have just released the two track 'Jumbo Mumbo' EP on the Relief Records label featuring the original mixes of the title track - and a song called 'Kickin It' - and it's currently available exclusively on Beatport: http://www.beatport.com/#release/jumbo-mumbo-ep/877475

I'm not a big fan of the vocal sample on the title track - I actually think they should have called this the 'Kickin It' EP - as it's the b-side that's the real standout here. The song is a classic disco/ house/ techno hybrid - think Giorgio Moroder style backing synths with classic Green Velvet soul filled vocals. The only thing I wish were different about this track was that it was twice as long - ten minutes instead of five (this video is edited slightly) because it's that awesome! Enjoy...!
