Element Recordings Celebrates 100th Release with track "The Journey"
Label Director Craig Regan gives us the full story behind Element Recordings’ milestone 100th release, out today on Beatport.
“The longest project I have worked on production-wise and one of my proudest. Not my usual Techno business, but it matured me as a producer building the musical story behind 12 excellent verses given me by the legendary MC Man Parrish,” Craig explains. “In my opinion, production-wise this separates the boys from the men!”
“Anyone with history in dance will get this track, and I hope it brings all the young spunkers up to date with dance music roots. Made by two great friends who have been there from the start, with a lot of passion and musical emotion involved.”
Big thanks go to all the remixers: Lee Ljhigh, George Kafetzis, The Demonic Brothers, and Ste Essence.
Special recognition also goes to long-time good friend Lisa Lashes — “A true professional who read into the original from the start and gave this release, in my opinion, a dragon breath of extra life. Not only for remixing the track but also for all her behind-the-scenes help and support.”
And a big shout-out to Barry Diston at Fidget Studios — “the silent assassin in a lot of this project with his excellent music engineering.”
“If you consider me a friend in music, help me and Jeff spread the word. Please share. It won’t break your finger.”
