about

Deee-Lite’s “Dewdrops in the Garden” was a pivotal album in my musical history. I was living in Richmond Virginia and just getting the art of beat-matching down and was given a bunch of records by my mentor at the time Chad Wilson. Most of the records had these cool 105 to 115BPM songs on them that really spoke to me at the time. I remember using “What is Love?” in a mix because it fit that slower funkier vibe. Anyway, it’s the summer in 1994, and my daily routine was to head over to my friend Chris’ house and play records, smoke weed and try to get better. We were obviously spinning vinyl back then, and my friend just got back from Washington D.C. with a stack of records and the new Deee-Lite album in in the stack. Me being a fan sorta just blew them off right away, thinking it would be more NYC style house without much breaks or funk. So, we are playing records and he slips in a few of these new Deee-Lite songs, and I’m losing my mind, damn these are as good as anything else coming out those days. Eventually I ended up with the record my wife then girl-friend had and I would drop “Picnic in the Summertime” and “Apple Juice Kissing” at this lounge gig I had as they fit that vibe. A few years ago I ended up finding one of the source material songs The Clash “Armagideon Time” and thought it would be cool to re-create the song parts a bit and create this Redux. I got ahead of myself and contacted Lady Miss Kier to see if I could get a drop, she politely responded that she would like to hear it first. I then lost the project and forgot about it until recently when cleaning up my Pro-Tools session and found it and revived it. So here you are, nothing groundbreaking but a tribute to a very special song that represented a very special time in my life.
