SPLICE OF LIFE - SO SPECIAL


Splice Of Life were Richard Yori & Alan Russell, UK dance music producers who released a handful of 12"s during the 90's but also contributed remixes for the likes of Marshall Jefferson and Tommy Musto. Released in 1995, So Special was written by New Jersey House writing & production team Blaze, and it appeared on their 25 Years Later album in 1990. It's a nice remake, and quite faithful to the original. However, tucked away on the B-Side is the Jazz 'N' Groove Dub which is one of my favourite tracks ever. Jazz 'N' Groove (duo Brian Tappert & Marc Pomeroy) strip the song right down then slowly build it back up using piano, keyboards and snippets of the vocal before exploding into a funky organ crescendo. Simply uplifting. Best of all, a decade and a half later it stills sounds as fresh as it did when it was released...Enjoy
