Holy Ghost! returns to their remix roots with this reworking of Monarchy’s “Love Get Out Of My Way” with the help of Berlin based producer Dixon. This time with a funky harpsichord and fat synth bassline that would make any late 70s/early 80s discotheque groove hard. This is definitely the heaviest production to come from Holy Ghost due in part to the fantastic drum solo that occurs during the bridge courtesy of Jerry Fuchs, RIP. Be sure to check out their live version of the duo in band form coming to a city near you.

Monarchy – Love Get Out Of My Way (Holy Ghost [Feat.Dixon] Remix)

I recently found this remix on Dubka’s myspace, a remix of We Are Standard’s “Last Time”. Dubka is so good at producing tracks that sound so 80s while not making them seem like a novelty thing. I particularly love how he transposes the vocals to sound like a woman. Also that synth guitar solo blows me away. Check out Dubka’s myspace to see what he is up to lately – currently he is producing Ali Love’s album, a synth pop odyssey that Giorgio Moroder would be proud of. Checkout “Smoke and Mirrors” here and “Diminishing Return” here.

Here is Dubka dropping some knowledge on how he achieved that crazy synth solo:

“The synth solo is just very fast programmed midi sent to the Commodore 64 synth I made. What makes it sound more guitar-like is the fact it’s going through an old Boss multi-effects box and I’m doing the pitch-bend live as it recording. The main sort of melodic theme is the same sound but it’s just played live.”

Download: Holy Ghost! – I Will Come Back (Classixx Acacpulco Night’s Version)

I love this slick and smooth summery direction Holy Ghost! and Classixx are taking the electronic world. They are songwriters that are bring back a certain class and atitude into this once distorted bloghaus landscape. Classixx need to remix that upcoming Holy Ghost! track featuring Michael McDonald to fully bring Yacht Rock into the 21st Century. I think I hear some Toto in this remix.

Cheers Green Label Sound for hooking it up.
