Great to see the love on this bad boy.. Just to give this some context.. 25 years ago this November I was teamed up with Mike Millrain as one half of a production duo working for George Power’s Nice & Ripe label( RIP GP). At the time the UKG scene producers had a habit of remixing Rnb accapellas from the 12 inch releases and creating their own innovative mixes to break to their audiences. 1999 Mariah Carey covered Rainy Davis’s 1986 electro soul classic’ ‘Sweetheart’ which was huge but there was no RnB accapella. I brought my 12 inch with accapella to Mike Millrain and suggested we do this remix and this is the result of us working together in the Nice & Ripe Finsbury Park studio. It was our first project which earned the respect of the UKG fam thankfully especially when it got a rewind at the legendary Twice As Nice @ the Coliseum in Vauxhall where I as ‘Da Buzzboy’ Fitzroy was resident DJing in the RnB Reminisce room. As a virgin production duo with our debut single ‘Sweetheart’ as DJ Spoony shared with me at the time ‘was doing the bizniz’. Working with the creative Mike Millrain, we were The Groove Merchantz, Disco Dub Discples, Westside Connection & Da Mastablastaz as pseudonyms. Peace Fitzroy aka ‘ Da Buzzboy’ 🙏🏿🎼
