Greg Long has recently completed a remix for The Cranes track
“Submarine” from their recent album release “Future Songs” This remix
will be available on a 5 track CD via Shadow Records in the near future.
We’ll keep this news posted on the site as soon as we receive a release
date.
The new Shadow Records compilation “Dub Life” is to be released on the
26th of this month. This CD is a continuous mix of modern Dub mixed by
Shawn Francis. Greg Long’s remix of Saru’s “Something Stronger” opens up
the CD and moves onward into deep and dubby journey. Though I’ve not
heard the CD in it’s entirety, the ones who have are speaking quite
highly of this compilation, so it looks to be a strong release. Includes
Baby Mammoth’s remix of Greg Long’s “Nostalgic Lament” as well as the
unreleased track by Greg “Mellon Collie Dub”. All clips can be heard on
Amazon.com.
As some of you know, Greg has wrapped up his debut album “Balance” which
is due out in Apiril. We’ve added clips of all tracks from the album for
those interested in getting a feel of this beautiful piece of work.
