The end of the 80’s and the early 90’s was a time when dance music was more than alive, it was the beginning of the pinnacle of rave culture. The italo-house group, Black Box, helped paved the way for the explosion of electronic dance music into the mainstream and top 40, with a little help from singer-songwriter, Martha Wash. Undeniably, Ms. Wash made a massive impact on the music of Black Box, lending her powerful vocals on a number of their top hits, including their second single, “I Don’t Know Anybody Else”, off the Dreamland album.

As a producer that is into female-oriented genres, it’s no surprise that Brooklyn’s Kingdom, has taken the dynamic vocals of Martha Wash, from “I Don’t Know Anybody Else” and digs right into the soul of this remix. “It’s a casual remix I threw together really. Diva / Juke / Crunk / Trance – I really love hearing Martha Wash on the half-time crunk parts because you’re so used to hearing her on high energy beats,” says Kingdom. One that is sure to spread like wildfire. It’s fantastical and he nails it.

Kingdom has also been inducted in to the Fool’s Gold fam. and his debut single “Mindreader” featuring Shyvonne, along with some hot remixes, is headed your way! Peep it by clicking the link.

Catch Kingdom at Night Slugs, Friday 19 June at Egg, London, with special guests Geeneus, Spyro, Ben UFO, and residents Bok Bok and L-VIS 1990. Check his myspace calendar for more U.S. and U.K. dates and do a search for Kingdom on Trash Menagerie, for all things related.
