Never Saw It Coming


Sean Johnston was playing this last night at the Convenanza festival in Carcasonne and it is a beauty, a full on trippy modern house record, with the double threat of the powerful New York vocals of Amy Douglas and two superbly Balearic remixes, woozy, mechanical funk, from Crooked Man (Crooked Man is Richard Barratt, DJ and producer from Sheffield, city of bleep. The original mix was done in New York by Tim Wagner, co-writer). The sort of record that sounds like the dark corners of nightclubs, smells of dry ice and feels like a shot of something strong coursing through your veins.

  2. Thank you so much for covering this! (Amy Douglas here). Correction however. Two of the remixes are from Crooked Man. The Original Version (side two) was produced by Tim Wagner right on here in NYC, and we done wrote it together!

    I am thrilled this is going over so well though and that everyone is grooving on it! Thank you!
