The remixes of Ivory just dropped on iTunes. I have some big names on this release. I can say I’ve seen NT89 grow up as a producer day by day, since day one, when he was 17 or something like that. Now he’s one of the true innovators of the techno sound in 2012, well respected from the whole electronic scene. I wanted to have him on board on this to show  him and everyone else I’ve always believed in him. Same with Mumbai Science. Their tracks are pure dance music perfection: you can find an old fashioned vibe in their groove while everything else sounds from the future. Bob / The Bloody Beetroots (no need for an introduction) brought Ivory into his own world, adding pianos and orchestra to the arrangement; he definetely flipped out my track and made it as his own one, which I think it’s the purpose of doing a remix. I am kinda happy to say he offered himself to do this work, because he was excited about the track when I firstly showed him that he asked me to remix it. Master Laidback Luke did hiw own edit of Ivory, adding more bass to my song and making it more dancefloor-friendly. Give it a try, Luke knows best

Spinner hosted the premier of the brand new video of Ivory, directed by Ag Rojas. I am proud about having the chance to work with him, he’s a real talent. He has done videos for Jack White, Spiritualized, Earl Sweatshirt, Gil Scott-Heron. It feels great to go along with thes names. Check out the video clicking on the picture. Enjoy

I am on Instagram now, posting pictures of cool, weird and interesting stuff. Definetely not a lot of food pictures, so make sure you look for me on there, just search congorock.
