Kevin McKay returns with Voices — a deep, modern rework of The Police classic Voices In My Head, rebuilt from the ground up for today's clubs.
Digging through vinyl for a music-sharing post, Kevin rediscovered classic DJ versions from Ashley Beedle and Roger Sanchez. The vocal still felt magic — but none of the existing versions hit the groove he'd want to play at Superfeel today. Even the Hot Since 82 version didn't land for his current taste.
So he decided to make his own.
Rather than rely on the iconic guitar line (which almost every version since the late 80s has used), Kevin avoided it entirely. The original is in B major — a notoriously difficult key for club music. Major chords can quickly make a track sound sweet, cheesy, or too "happy."
To solve that, he built the record from percussion upward: tuned drums, deep bass, layered rhythmic hooks, and just enough harmonic colour to make it sexy — not saccharine.
The result sits comfortably alongside the deep, rolling house of Gorge, Nick Curly, and classic 8Bit releases: warm, groovy, and perfectly balanced for tension-building moments between warm-up and peak time.
A sophisticated, contemporary take on a beloved vocal — built for real dance floors.
