The Billie Holiday classic is torching dance floors worldwide...
THE EARLY BUZZ
Tony Humphries - Excellent remixes from Spen & Co!
Grant Nelson – Great work!
Terry Hunter - HOTT REMIX! Sunday School everyday of the week.
DJ Spen - closed my set in London with it and it killed!
Richard Earnshaw – Top vibes!
Marques Wyatt – Feelin’ this!
Groove Assassin - Quality! Love these remixes!
DJ Dealer - Very classy indeed!
Sarah Favouritizm - love love love!
Tim Davies (Stuutering Munx) - Great track! Thanks!
Kate Monroe - One of all time favorite tracks. This is the reason that music moves us all..
Tony Powell - Chellena provides smooth graceful vocals with Spen & Hudgins supplying that deep rich bassline that makes this gospel stomper a winner!
Tony Wilson - the remix is rockin'! Pumped it earlier tonight and got massive love.
Russell Pollitt (Prime Direct) - My brothers smashed the remix.... brilliant.
Michael Fossati (SpiritofHouse.com) - Phenomenal remix taking this stunning interpretation of the timeless classic by American jazz singer and songwriter Billie Holiday to a whole new level.
Dean Serafini (JJazproject.com) - The original mixes were excellent and these new versions also raise the temperature. I will certainly be playing and talking about this.
Manutek (mixcollectors.com) - Great pumpin' rework. Love it!
On the 2nd installment DJ Spen and Gary Hudgins deliver a remix that can only be described as a masterpiece! Their interpretation of Groove Junkies acclaimed cover of Holiday’s “God Bless The Child” is an uplifting, soulful house workout that delivers on all fronts. No gimmicks, just real House music with musicality, grit, nuance, a ton of heart and hands in the air drama that’s destined to take the party to the next level!
ABOUT DJ SPEN & GARY HUDGINS
With a career span of more than 20 years, Spen has become one of the most sought-after and respected Producer / DJs on the planet. His legendary work with Jasper Street Co., Basement Boys, MuthaFunkaz, Code Red and his new Quantize imprint rank him amongst today’s elite writer and producers. Today, Spen can be found jetting off to gigs at some of the premier clubs around the world while juggling his demanding studio work schedule.
Fellow Baltimore native Gary Hudgins has played keyboards professionally for over 30 years. Aside from being a long time collaborator with Spen, his phenomenal keyboard talents can also be heard on recordings and remixes by artists such as Angie Stone, Lenny Kravitz, Michael Jackson, Brandy, Ann Nesby (The Sounds Of Blackness), Taja Seville, Sybil and others. The outrageous diversity of all these artists reflect Gary's diversity and his ability to adapt to almost any musical genre.
