Dan Black

I had the opportunity to speak with Dan Black last week.  The UK singer/songwriter touched on many topics, including the horror that was “Symphonies”, a song that sounds a lot like “Umbrella” and was originally released as a cover of B.I.G.’s “Hypnotize”.  A few days before turning in the final album and pushing that release campaign button, Black and co. got a call from the Wallace estate vetoing any use of “Hypnotize” and Black was forced to switch up the track that broke him to U.S. audiences and was a youtube cult classic.  Well, the light is at the end of the tunnel, as “Symphonies” has a life of it’s own and many many remixes, including one featuring Kid Cuid.  The remixes will all be released on May 25th via an EP, which you can listen to now free of charge after the jump.  Check for our interview with Dan Black coming soon.
