Ben Sollee – Letting Go (Thomas Jack Remix)
Tropical house maestro Thomas Jack returns to remix duties on Ben Sollee’s Letting Go. A  luscious, relaxed drum rack slowly weaves its way beneath the top line and samples of crashing ocean waves. Thomas writes that the remix was inspired by the waves of Tulum, and the samples you hear in this track were actually recorded on a bach in Tulum. They add that certain tropical element that we always get with Thomas’ music, and its certainly a fantastic form of house, perfect for this first day of October, as most of us around the U.S are assuredly gripped by autumn’s official arrival last week, oh so desperately wanting to return to the warmth of summer. This ‘Letting Go’ remix is soothing bit of minimal house, and another great addition to the young mans discography. Of course, you can catch Thomas Jack on tour throughout the U.S right now, and if you do, then you may be treated to scenes such as the one described in this articles title: that’s right, at his recent Brooklyn show, TJ took off his boot, poured a beer into it, and drank it. Island maneuvers, for sure. Check out the video and the track below, and go here to see where Thomas Jack is playing next. Oh, and, being the good guy he is, TJ is giving this one away as a free download.
