SK Shlomo - The First Time (Simon Lyon Remix)

The First Time - SK Shlomo (Simon Lyon Remix) Released Friday 14 December 2018 on all platforms Manchester based producer and Ableton Live certified production Jedi Simon Lyons has been on an incredible journey with his music production, working with big name fans from Happy Mondays and MC Tonn Piper (Andy C, Roni Size) to Jon Hopkins, Leon Vynehall, Rudimental and Bipolar Sunshine. His banging ‘Sly Madchester’ remix of Welsh rising star Rachel K Collier’s ‘Poison’ caught the ears of award-winning beatboxer turned electronic singer-songwriter SK Shlomo who, after collaborating with Bjork, Ed Sheeran and Jarvis Cocker is now going solo. SK Shlomo immediately asked Simon Lyon to remix his newest single ‘The First Time’. The resulting Simon Lyon remix is a rip-roaringly moving, mind-blowingly cinematic journey, darting from emotional film-score to ear-melting drum n bass breaks, retaining the intrigue with innovative half/double time interplay along the way. “Building on Shlomo’s already strong vocal and melodic delivery, I used the teasing drum break as a catalyst to push the tempo a little and enter Drum ‘n’ Bass territory. Diving deeper into the vocals I built on the subtle Eastern vibe and brought some of the vocal riffs into a different arena. I wanted to retain some of the originals more textural approach so I employed Cello and Harp to provide a contrast to the harder more forceful sounds. Hopefully I managed to create a journey for the listener, highs and low’s whilst creating an air of intrigue.” “Simon Lyon is a fearless producer with a big fat sound- his super creative remix for my single Poison resonated hard with many of my fan s- mega excited to hear what he'll remix next” Rachel K Collier @simonlyonmusic: soundcloud.com/simonlyonmusic // instagram.com/ruthlessproducer @skshlomo: soundcloud.com/skshlomo // instagram.com/skshlomo

Shlomo, having worked with Björk, Rudimental and Ed Sheeran, has branched out from being “just another (extremely talented) beatboxer.”

After releasing the album “Surrender” - a self-produced collection of songs - and hearing the remix done for Rachel K Collier (above), Shlomo reached out to Simon for a remix of his track “The First Time”…
