KICKING OFF A YEAR OF EVENTS, RELEASES, &
GENERAL MAYHEM
Commemorating Delicious Vinyl's 20th
Anniversary, DV Announces Release
of Tone-Loc + Peaches "Wild Thing" 20th
Anniversary Version!
Some marriages are made in heaven. Some get
consummated in a booty club. And
every once in a very great while... if you're
lucky enough... you get both.
Exactly twenty years after the release of
Tone-Loc's scandalous rap classic "Wild
Thing" - then the fastest selling single in
record industry history - Delicious Vinyl is
proud to announce the release of a special
duet version of "Wild Thing" featuring none
other pioneering electro goddess Peaches. The
question on everyone's mind of course, is
who's gonna be wearing the pants in this
partnership? Tone? Peaches? To which we can
only say: What pants?
From the laboratory in her Berlin bunker,
Peaches has created a sizzling, bass-laced
track, updating the original Matt Dike/Mike
Ross production for today's active
lifestyles, and adding her own vocals to
Tone-Loc's immortal rap. You'll have to hear
it to believe it. And even then...
"Wild Thing" will be available in 12" vinyl
format (via Traffic Distribution) on November
13. It's sure to be a must-have in the record
bags of DJs and an essential download for
groovers worldwide. In addition to the main
version, the Fontana Distributed CD Maxi
Single (like the 12") will include an
instrumental version, an acapella, bonus
beats, and a special beat box version of the
track courtesy of Tez.
This new version of "Wild Thing" had its
preview debut at a special party held on
September '07 at the revered Tape Club in
Berlin, Germany, hosted by Peaches herself.
And make no mistake, this release is just the
beginning of something very special. Over the
next twelve months, Delicious Vinyl will
release a full slate of the label's classic
records re-imagined by artists including
A-Trak, Diplo, Hot Chip, Spank Rock, Bonde Do
Role, Ed Banger's Mr. Flash & DJ Medhi onto
an unsuspecting public. Of course, that
public still fondly remembers Delicious
artists whose tunes will be featured,
including The Pharcyde, Masta Ace, The Brand
New Heavies, Def Jef, and Born Jamericans.
Each release will be available on CD Maxi
Single, 12", and will have a special party in
a different city to celebrate its release
(Stay tuned for more dates and locations to
be announced soon). The tracks will be
collected on a special Delicious Reimagined
full-length album slated for release in 2008.
