about

Four covers by Moullinex, Telonius, Munk and The Phenomenal Handclap Band for original songs by
Donna Summer, Skatt Bros., Stephanie Mills, Michael Sembello

Vocals by Peaches -- guest keyboards by Harold Faltermeyer


The Project
Gomma has been asked if they want to rework some songs from the legendary Casablanca Records catalogue. Of course, you don't need to think twice if you get the possibility to put your hands on classic tracks by people like Donna Summer & Giorgio Moroder, Skatt Bros., Stephanie Mills or the Flashdance soundtrack!

So Moullinex, Telonius, Munk and The Phenomenal Handclap Band from New York created four new interpretations. The Gomma boys asked their friend Peaches if she would join the jams. She is probably one of the few singers of today who has the right understanding of musical history, the perfect dirty approach, full consciousness of the needed style and enough soul. Because yes: she got soul.

The Tracks
Every cover is a unique, unexpected, super catchy very modern interpretation. Ranging from dirty boogie funk, to futuristic house and even some nasty Bananarama Glamour. In the end of the production there was a nice surprise: Casablanca producer Icon Harold Faltermeyer visited the Gomma studio with a friend. He loved the project a lot and offered to play some keyboards. Check his analogue synth lines on Telonius "Our Love" cover version!

Remix contest
For this huge project Gomma made a cooperation with their friends at Burn Studios / Audiotool. The great online music production tool. They had a great idea with developing the free online music producers community. Audiotool will get the stems of all 4 tracks in January for 6 weeks. All the kids in the Audiotool community will have the chance to create their own remixes. Gomma will release the best remixes with a subsequent Remix EP.
