Nashville, TN (Top40 Charts/ HandsOn PR) Upon wrapping his SRO 2013 Jagermeister Country
Music Tour with
Aaron Lewis, country music star Rick Monroe (www.rickmonroe.com) noticed his latest MRG Recordings' single (www.mrgrecordings.com) and corresponding video for his hit track Just the Same was making noise at radio and on music video outlets nationally and internationally.
Monroe also noticed something else was happening as well… it was getting noticed by musicians, performers, engineers and mixers in various musical genres, blurring the lines between country music and other formats.
Always ready to try something new to expand his audience, when Ben Riley approached Rick with his idea for a Just the Same Remix, Rick was intrigued.
So Riley, a noted American electronic musician and recording/mix engineer who lives in Nashville, got to work and Rick and Ben submitted the re-mix to MRG Recordings who felt the new version of Just The Same deserved a release of its own.
The result is the Ben Riley Remix of Just the Same, now available for pre-order on itunes.
Plans are in the works for a corresponding video. Go to www.mrgrecordings.com to grab your Just the Same Remix.
