Commentary

The first release of Manta 1000, a French electronic band. They reached out to Sublime records and requested me to remix their debut track as they liked Captain Funk’s “Bustin’ Loose EP.” That’s why I decided to make this song sound more energetic and funkier by adding brass sections and heavy synth bass sound (although I tried to avoid going too far).

By the way, whenever I have an offer of music production including remixes, I make it a rule to ask clients what track under which project of mine they heard. It is crucial not only for them but also for me to clarify their needs so that we both can end up working together comfortably.
