Looks like Edge of Seventeen is the next tune to get the remixed by Steven Scalfati

A DVD just arrived from Warner Bros. Records yesterday containing the original multi-track recordings of the poetic song “Edge of Seventeen” off of the 1981 album Bella Donna by Stevie Nicks, her solo debut while on hiatus from Fleetwood Mac.

Produced by the legendary Jimmy Iovine, he wisely avoids over-producing and keeps things sounding organic on this impressive debut. It is very, very cool to be able to hear the raw multi-tracks compared to the final mix… There is a huuuuge difference and hats off to the mixer!

Building on the success of Ralphi’s Beefy-Retro Mix of “Stand Back” and the Deep Dish version of “Dreams”, Reprise has decided to give the royal Steven Scalfati treatment to “Edge of Seventeen”. The word on the street is that Stevie likes the remixes to stay pretty true to the original. What will Stevie do?

Are they looking for the quirky techno edge of Scal’s Lady Sovereign remix? Or do they want the feelgood vibe of his smash remix for Ashley Tisdale? Hmmm… Or maybe they are a bunch of jingle anoraks that want it to sound like the latest custom package for the Heart Network as it is chock-full of killer musical Scalfati-isms.

Keep your RSS readers tuned to our feed and be one of the first to hear what DJ Scalfonzo comes up with!

Hm, this will be interesting. I'm kind of an Edge purist, but I'm looking forward to hearing this.

Yay! This is so exciting. First, POTU, then Dreams, then Stand Back and now E017. Would love to hear GDW, Rhiannon, or HSML remixed too.
Wow, what a cool trend this is turning out to be and am so glad Stevie is open to getting these songs remixed by DJs. This is really keeping her music fresh and out there.

The "what will Stevie do" line makes me think she will be adding new vocals..like the dreams one.
