Ep. 24: Trackademicks on the Art & Craft of Remixing

Get inside the creative mind of music producer and ace remixer Trackademicks! Whether it's putting an amapiano spin on a '90s R&B ballad or mashing up two songs from disparate musical scenes, Track has a knack for weaving tunes from a variety of genres, eras, and tempos into fresh new joints that club DJs crave. In this episode we talk about five of his own remixes, his affinity to the original songs, and how he reimagined these familiar classics so they can be heard in an entirely different context. Track's Selections: 1.) SWV - "Anything" (Trackademicks Remix) 2.) Jodeci - "Cry For You" (Trackademicks Remix) 3.) Trackademicks - "No Bammer Beats in the SFC" (RBL Posse Flip) 4.) Ready For The World - "Oh Sheila" (Trackademicks Remix) 5.) 2 Player Co-Op - “When the World Is Running Down” (cover of the Police “When the World is Running Down” & Jay-Z “Coming Of Age”) Listen to Trackademicks' remixes and originals on Bandcamp or Soundcloud Follow his IG to keep up with what he's doing
