REWIND! V.5 Original Classics. Re-Worked, Remixed, and Rewound

Critics praise Ubiquity's Rewind! series:

”My favorite compilation series” ?UESTLOVE, THE ROOTS
“Amazing” KING BRITT (FIVESIX RECORDINGS)
“Best by far” DAZ-I-KUE (BUGZ IN THE ATTIC)
"Straight on my radios playlist. Suppa funky ****." LAURENT GARNIER
"Top stuff to throw on and chill out." - WATER
"What remixes should aspire to." URB
"Wall of Fame" FADER
"Enjoyable in every sense of the word." SBC SKATEBOARD
"With a little bit of Latin, a touch of house, plenty of funk, and a lot of love, this one's stuck on repeat."
SAN FRANCISCO BAY GUARDIAN
"Deeper in depth and scope..." LOUISIANA WEEKLY
"Raises the bar... piling up talent upon genius, the new versions become classics in their own rights." THE BOOK LA
"A fresh, gamut-running taste of music's hallowed yesteryear." SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER

"A solid compilation of grooves." IMPACT PRESS



THE CONCEPT OF THE REWIND! COMPILATION SERIES IS SIMPLE – our favorite artists cover their favorite tracks, revealing their influences and bringing classic tunes bang up to date. Rewind! has become our best selling series and Volume 5 is sure to be one of your favorites.

The 5th in our series of Rewind compilations featuring ALL exclusive tracks by 11 of our favorite artists. From ?uestloves’ Randy Watson Experience to the hotly tipped J*Davey the Rewind 5 cover versions include everyone from Fleetwood Mac to Led Zeppelin, The Beach Boys to the Sylvers. The concept of the "Rewind!" compilation series is simple: Ubiquity's favorite artists cover their favorite tracks, revealing influences and bringing classic tunes up to date. Just as with Volume 4, this collection contains 100% cover versions made from scratch (no remixes or re-edits). Only this volume is all brand new, and all exclusive.

J*Davey use their punk-funk meets r’n’b flavor to conjure up a cover of one of their favorite tunes, Frank Zappa’s “Dirty Love”. One of the East Coast’s finest funk bands the El Michels Affair drop a nasty version of Burt Bacharach’s “Walk On By” (based on the version that Alicia Keys, Cypress Hill, and Hooverphonc all borrowed from Isaac Hayes who had covered Bacharach). Daz-I-Kue from the BugzInTheAttic crew drops a club-bound cover of Ben E. King’s rare-groover “Spoiled” featuring Bembe Segue and Colonel Red on vocal duties. Stepping out from behind the decks of his famous ice-cream truck sound system Black Shakespeare drops a sun-blessed reggae cover of Fleetwood Mac classic “Dreams”. The Rebirth rough up The Sylvers “Handle It” and ?uestlove takes time-off from his busy schedule with The Roots to drop a Sting cover from his new Randy Watson Experience project. Back after several years off the block, Finland’s NuSpirit Helsinki return with a harder, bigger, more electronic sound and a cover of Led Zeppelin, and Germany’s Henrik Schwarz gets minimal with his version of the percussionists Guem et Zaka’s “Labeille”. Psapp made one of our favorite albums of last year (and their music was quickly gobbled-up for USA TV including the soundtrack to Greys Anatomy et al) and get to act on their feline inclinations with a version of “Everybody Wants To Be A Cat”, while Owusu and Hannibal round-out proceedings with a dreamy-folksy version of The Beach Boys “Caroline, No”.

Livia, you often make interesting finds & bring them to our attention & I just want to thank you because I for one see what you post & appreciate hearing these tidbits. As you know, I am a Fleetwood Mac factoidologist, which is close to being a proctologist, but not quite.
