Be Right There (remixes)

A high-gloss collection of club-ready reworks, blending 90s R&B nostalgia with the aggressive, neon-lit bass of mid-2010s festival culture.

Be Right There (remixes) is a quintessential artifact of the mid-2010s electronic landscape, where the lines between underground house and mainstage EDM were increasingly blurred. Built around a clever sample of Jade's 1992 hit 'Don't Walk Away,' the collection leverages 90s R&B nostalgia to create an immediate emotional connection, then subverts it with high-octane production. It sounds like the peak of a summer festival: bright, loud, and relentlessly optimistic. The original collaboration with Sleepy Tom provides a sturdy future house foundation, but the remixes push the track into diverse sonic territories, from the heavy-hitting trap of Boombox Cartel to the rhythmic complexity of UK bassline.

Moments Worth Listening For
the flava d remix transition into a skipping uk garage rhythm that breathes new life into the r&b vocal
the moment the bass drops in the boombox cartel remix, shifting from melodic house to aggressive trap
the way the vocal hook is stutter-edited in the gent and jawns version to create a percussive rhythmic element
