Several producers and MCs at first accepted and then declined the job of remixing Suite for Ma Dukes, which is a daunting task. This project began as an homage to one mother’s love (Ma Dukes) and has now been remixed by another (Georgia Ann Muldrow) with her son Nokware in her lap. Two incredible women, one amazing track. Remixed.
Georgia insisted that she didn’t want to chop the song but to play along as if she was there in the Orchestra. We wanted her to sing on the track too but her microphone was in the shop for repairs – so on suggestion she sang the vocals into the lavaller tie clip mic that we used to capture sound for the video.
This remix and the two other remixes from Te’Amir (remixing Mulatu Astatke) and Jneiro Jarel (remixing Arthur Verocai) will be available on a Timeless Remixed EP this summer.
