Talk about being out of the loop... I wish I knew this when it happened, but like I always say... I NEVER KNOW WHERE MY WORK WINDS UP.
It turns out in 2009, Phonte (Little Brother, Foreign Exchange) and DJ Brainchild rocked my Aaliyah Rock the Boat Remix on their Gordon Gatrell Radio podcast (THANK YOU!!!!). I know its long ago, but... Wow. It's an honor and a surprise to be in a playlist with my own favorites, J*DAVEY, Miguel, Dilla, Estero, Little Dragon, Atjazz and many, many more... Huh... I don't know what to say... I'm still wondering how the Gordon Gartrell Radio show even heard of my remix. Check it out here (remix and related banter about 59 minutes in the show):
Shout out to DJ HARLEMBROWN. Thanks for letting me know.
