New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Lavish band KARMACODA will be releasing a dance remix of their single 'Dare' by American producer E39. The remix, which premiered on Electronic Groove, will be available on the 19th of May via Sola Musa Music. The original single is featured on their latest album, Lessons In Time, which saw the light in October of 2022.
Karmacoda's work has been remixed by the likes of Extrawelt, Sailor & I, Lycoriscoris, KRONO, and Birds Of The West, which received support from Dancing Astronaut, Magnetic Mag, Stereofox, HMWL, EDM Identity, FAZE Magazine, and Decoded Mag. Both their original music and remixes received spins on NPR Music.
The triplet's own music has earned support and compliments from many tastemaker magazines, including CLASH Magazine,
Wonderland Magazine, NOTION Magazine, Magnetic Mag, Hotpress, Metal Magazine, Medium, Backseat Mafia, CelebMix, Son Of Marketing, and VENTS Magazine among others and received airtime on Irish
National radio RTÉ 2XM with Dan Hegarty.
E39 has redefined
Jessica Ford's vocals with his new remix, leading her from a smoky jazz speakeasy to the strobing dancefloor. A four-on-the-floor kick entwines with a funk bassline to set the groove in motion, animating the track with each passing moment.
Based in San Francisco, USA, KARMACODA is comprised of
Jessica Ford (vocals),
Brett Crockett (aka B. on vocals and producer) and Japanese-American multi-instrumentalist Eric Matsuno (bass and other unique elements). The trio's sound has been compared to a unique mix of Paloma Faith, Adele, and Pixie Lott.
As a DJ, remixer, and producer,
Peter Tanico, also known as E39, has been a DJ in NYC since the mid-'80s, mixing cutting-edge dance music into extended club performances under the moniker DJ
Peter T. His passion is music production and remixing, where he strives to perfect his skills, creating works comparable to the likes of Purple
Disco Machine, Kraak & Smaak, and Mark Knight.
E39 shares his appreciation, grateful for the opportunity to work with the band: "As a remixer, getting to work with such amazing talent like Karmacoda is a dream come true. The moment I heard 'Dare' I knew I had to take it on. A hit in every sense of the word. Thank you Karmacoda."
The band has also earned several awards including the Hermes Creative Awards (Platinum) for the 'Lo-Fi Girl' video and 'Make Me The One' video which also earned one Unglued
Music Video (Gold) and three Davey Awards for Video Entertainment, Best Use of
Music and Art Direction (all Silver).
