Q: I really enjoyed listening to the variations of the orginal songs on ‘beauty re-envisioned’. Can we expect something similar on the upcoming album? Also, you seem very hands on with BIC as the curator, how is it seemingly giving up control?
A: I am happy you enjoyed ‘beauty re-envisioned’. I really enjoyed the process of it unfolding. Our debut album, ‘FBIC’, was almost a year of my life, so the remix album idea - which was started by a misunderstanding, certainly gave myself and Michael Rozon a ‘break’. It was great to recharge and to sort of sit back and hear what other artists and producers would do with free reign. I enjoyed the process so much I figured why not do it again! There is still lots to do in making this happen and I am never completely ‘hands off’ :) As far as what to expect? Being privy to hearing 80% of the remixes so far, it will be as deep and diverse as the first one. I think that was the charm of ‘beauty re-envisioned’ … it was not the typical remix record … 4-on-the-floor dance beats and the usual. I feel the same about ‘Out Of Chaos Comes …’ There will a few surprises and even new version of a song from ‘FBIC’ that was not remixed on ‘beauty re-envisioned’ As before, there will be 20+ tracks, which means a lot of gems will be on the digital version that just don’t fit in the time constraints of the vinyl and CD. Halloween can’t come soon enough !!!
