Loving this remix which takes Just Jack’s, “Embers” and cuts and sliced it with Wale’s voice over the top of it. Simply brilliant! Watch out for a sick build around the 2:35 mark. Be sure to swing by Phillip’s soundcloud page and drop some love.
Embers (feat Wale) [Phillip Martell Remix] by pmartell
Bio from Phillip Martell:
I’m from Detroit but moved to Atlanta for university. Growing up I really enjoyed listening to heartland rock by guys like Bruce Springsteen, John Mellencamp, and Bob Segar, but when I hit high school I met a bunch of italian kids that turned me onto dance music. I’ve always liked music that put emphasis on melody, whether it was Mark Knopfler’s guitar work in DIre Straits or Above & Beyond’s lead key lines in “Air For Life.” For Ember’s, I thought Just Jack lead violin hook was incredibley melodic and it could serve as a great beat for someone to rap over. So i chopped up the song, added vocals, drums, and a whole bunch of other stuff. To make sure I kept to my dance roots, I also added my own electro-house break down at the end so I could get bodies banging on the dancefloor.
