First I went and had a re-listen to Jeris’ original. Beautiful piece. Then to go right into this beat driven vehicle of joy… very cool.

Wow, Susan this is such a gift! I’m amazed at what you were able to do with that vintage ccM track, I think that was the first time I ever recorded myself singing. Really made my day : ) Thank you!!

I’m so glad to hear you like the mix Jeris. It’s no secret that I love your music (how many times have I remixed you or asked you to record parts for something I was working on?) This time though, I really had a great time remixing your vocals. Your voice has such a great tone — I love it! It was also fun to make a dance track. (I actually googled “house music structure” to make sure I was not too far off point in terms of structure.) Thanks again for being so generous with your talents, time and spirit.
p.s. I realize I simply had to get Haskel involved after my representative was unsuccessful in getting a hold of your guitar cuts from the original track. :-) |

brilliant Susan. i started to listen and had to dive into Jeris’s track first to see how this song was born. i am completely surprised! i must know your secret — how the heck did you create this thumpin’ four-in-the-floor dance track from Jeris’s smooth, subtle jazz track? (like how did you make that record scratching sound?) I’m so happy to discover this wonderfully sung vocal from Jeris (with such colorful, imaginative lyrics inspired by 3 of my favorite poets).
the breakdown section is so magical! and then back into the riding rhythm. damn girl. this mix is amazing Susan. your talent never ceases to amaze me. Haskel rocks too! all hands in the air! |

Thanks so much Emily — especially for such a detailed comment. I really appreciate it. I think I was magically inspired by Jeris, who I find magically inspiring!
The scratching was made by layering a variety of effects onto a field recording of birds that I made one day at the Sepulveda Dam. (I would have to go back to my session to see what I used but there are a lot of plug-ins involved.) |

Fantastic track, driven by subtle and ever changing percussion and drums. In many ways the track reminded me of Paul Simon and Rhythm of the Saints, especially with Jeris’s voice which is smooth and creamy.
The changing drums are fantastic, I don’t know how many layers of kicks you used, but they work together, especially the flams. Then the congas and delays just fit in beautifully. The reversed cymbals add a nice tension and rhythm. I won’t mention the great mixing, guitars and vocals as thats been said already. Great work! |

This is really good. You dug deep to find this, I can tell… so outside your usual style, but really, really good. And I love that melodic break in the last fifth. That’s pretty spectacular.

Awwwww yeah!!! Susan! 1st, how cool that you picked Jeris. 2nd, what an inspired, engaging mix… so many dazzling elements… killer beats, ridiculously catchy bass, badazz geetar (YEAH Haskel!), beautifully constructed (and researched) structure, meticulously impressive production… AND all possible despite the computer issue. Mad props, lady… mad props!!

Oooomg susan. This is so cool and trippy. Vocals fit so nice in the music bed you made :P I love all the perc you used, the once-in-a-while clap, the choppy, effect-ridden cymbal. It all comes together to make a very cool and unique song :D
