Metroplane - Be Where I Am (Whitesquare Remix)
** Radio Embargo Until June 6th / Club Play Only **
As a kid, I used to get told I have an active imagination... I think I still do.
For example, this one time... I imagined this world where your record box not only had the songs... but back stage, all the artists that were on the record, were hanging out, in case they got the call up to go and perform their record.
So for example, if you had a Billie Jean remix in the crate, there was Michael Jackson backstage, doing some warm up dancing, ears pricked in case he heard the first notes of that unmistakable bassline creeping in under whatever was playing before - which of course would have been his cue to go out on stage and perform the song (unless of course the dj was just sampling the bassline and didn't need him on vox).
And then down the hall was Aretha Franklin, ready to come out and sing on any one of the 67 songs she'd been sampled on without her permission...
And when my imagination kept running, I imagined all the artists partying together after the show, some having performed, some having just gathered a little more dust, again not getting the call up for the show - Maybe even angry that the DJ kept packing them and not playing them.
Anyways - I digress. Right now, I'm thinking about BE WHERE I AM - the song by absolute legends of the scene Alex Metric and Aeroplane aka METROPLANE - the song that has soundtracked so many amazing moments over the last few years since its release in 2019 - from sunsets with the Keinemusic crew to sunrises with pretty much every dj on the planet playing at that time....and this thinking got me imagining....
What if we took the original and gave it a club rub.... Something to take it out of the hands of the 6pms and 6ams and into the hands of the 2ams and 3ams.... How would that sound? What if we gave it to a guy that has all the heads in his pockets… From Mita Gami to Purple Disco Machine, Solomun to Super Flu, Maceo Plex to Booka Shade, Adam Ten to Richie Hawtin - where would it get played?
Where would the WHITESQUARE remix of BE WHERE I AM get played? My imagination takes me everywhere....
And now it's yours to create these memories with one of the most memorable records of the last decade...
Much love
