Shannon – Let The Music Play (Corvin Dalek Remix)
Shannon’s Let The Music Play is a cornerstone of 80s dance culture. For me, it was the soundtrack to countless nights and a source of inspiration during my formative years. In 2001, when Mark Reeder called with an invitation from DMC to remix this timeless anthem, it felt like a surreal honor to revisit a piece of music that had been so integral to my youth.
The Remix: Nostalgia Meets Wet&Hard Energy
The challenge was clear: to honor Shannon’s iconic vocals and the unforgettable groove of the original while infusing it with my signature Wet&Hard sound. Working closely with Mark, I crafted a remix that keeps the heart of the 80s alive in the break, letting Shannon’s voice and melody shine. Surrounding this nostalgic core are hard beats and driving wet basslines that pushed the track into fleshy, sensual territory.
A Timeless Classic Reimagined
This remix wasn’t just about updating a track—it was about building a bridge between two worlds. Shannon’s timeless energy blends with the hypnotic pulse of Wet&Hard, creating a track that feels as vital on today’s dancefloors as it did decades ago.
“Shannon’s anthem redefined dance music in the 80s. My remix aims to honor that legacy while giving it a modern, driving edge.”
