Lucky Sun feat. Jaidene Veda – Falling Fool (Remixes)
Following the success of the original version of ‘Falling Fool’, including numerous plays on BBC Radio 1 and at Café Del Mar, Lucky Sun (aka Tom Lown) returns with an eclectic remix EP featuring versions by YSE Saint Laur’Ant, Formanteau, Kanedo and Joe Morris (Release Date: March 1st, 2024).
First up, YSE Saint Laur’Ant (one half of Rhythm Plate), serves up a genius, quirky down tempo number, full of wonkiness and glitched out beats. Formanteau (YSE’s other psudenym)’s remix brings a more uptempo, unique flavoured deep disco vibe. These first 2 remixes also come as instrumental versions on the EP.
Kanedo, who runs the Personal Belongings label in Barcelona, remixes the track in his signature emotive, deep house sound, giving a new feel with fresh textures, chords and bassline, keeping the vibe of the original vocal. Finally, Joe Morris (Shades of Sound/Clandestino), slows things down a little with his sunny balearic sounding ‘Sunrise Mix’ and even more chilled ‘Sunset Dub’.
US artist Jaidene Veda‘s voice is often described as “Björk meets Sade”, or dubbed “a modern day Tracey Thorn”, though various reviews of her work still state that her style is inimitable. Having collaborated with some of the industry’s finest, she is the perfect fit for this collaboration and ‘something magical’ happened in hers and Tom’s respective, transatlantic remote studios.
