NEW YORK (Cornerstone Promotions) - Cornerstone Promotion has created an exclusive The Incredibles Remix EP, available now at the Apple iTunes store, in anticipation of the upcoming Disney/Pixar film, THE INCREDIBLES (in theaters November 5).
The Incredibles Remix EP showcases the diverse and cutting edge styles of acclaimed producers UNKLE, Ursula 1000, Greens Keepers and Diplo. Each remixer took elements from The Incredibles film and score, composed by Michael Giacchino, then reconstructed and re-created something totally new and exciting.
"The Incredibles is an amazing film that will appeal to all movie fans, young and old," says Jon Cohen, co-president of Cornerstone Promotion. "We felt that by bringing some of the more creative, up and coming minds in music together with such a great film, we could create more awareness for The Incredibles and help build the names of some excellent DJs, producers, and bands."
The remix EP will also yield a limited edition 12" vinyl promo collectors piece. Each set will include two red 12" pieces of vinyl with the bonus remix by mash-up master DJ Reset. Each 12" will feature a unique character label from the film and everything will be contained in a special film reel casing with The Incredibles seal on the outside. Only 500 sets will be made.
About the Producers: Leading off the EP is UNKLE aka James Lavelle and Richard File who's UNKLE RECONSTRUCTION is a guitar-based breakbeat track that hits hard and brings the fantastic world of The Incredibles to life! UNKLE is set to release their new record Never Never Land on October 26.
The Greens Keepers signature Chicago house style shines through their remix with a crisp, dance floor ready gem that will no doubt get bodies moving with jackin' beats and robotic cues from the film. Greens Keepers are hot off their viral video and top iTunes download for the Silence of the Lambs-inspired track 'Lotion'.
ESL Music's own Ursula 1000 brings out the orchestral elements of the score and adds a percussion heavy mix that makes this one a retro-styled groover! Ursula's new mix CD Ursadelica drops on November 2.
Upstart DJ and producer, Diplo who is one half of Philly DJ collective Hollertronix, shows a more eclectic and left field side to his remix. Minimal and techy, Diplo's remix of 'Glory Days' from the score displays something totally fresh and next level. Diplo's new record Florida is climbing the college charts and getting press accolades across the board!
As a vinyl-only bonus, DJ Reset mixes up a nice drum'n'bass concoction that ups the tempo on the score. DJ Reset is responsible for the mash up masterpiece 'Frontin on Debra' featuring Beck, Jay-z and Pharell.
About the Film:
The Incredibles follows the adventures of a family of former superheroes rediscovering the true source of their powers - in one another. Once one of the world's top masked crimefighters, Bob Parr (AKA Mr. Incredible) fought evil and saved lives on a daily basis. But fifteen years later, he and his wife Helen (a famous former superhero in her own right) have been forced to take on civilian identities and retreat to the suburbs. Today they live as mere mortals and lead all-too-ordinary lives with their children - who go out of their way to appear "normal." As a clock-punching insurance man, the only thing Bob fights these days is boredom and a bulging waistline. Itching for action, the sidelined superhero gets his chance when a mysterious communication summons him to a remote island for a top-secret assignment.
Now, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance, the family must come together and once again find the fantastic in their family life.
