A. Promised Land Sisters and Brothers Dub
B. Promised Land Sisters and Brothers Instrumental
Some records hold an iconic as well as anthemic status in dance culture. Originally written by Joe Smooth and first released in that very special year of 1987 It quickly became the soundtrack to a generation that wanted to believe that humans as brothers and sisters will all make it to the "Promised Land"
Barcelona-based producer and remixer Karim steps up to the plate to bring this classic tune up to date. The beats are tougher, the vocals are stripped down and reworked to spread the message in a sharper fashion that loses none of the beauty of the original. It¡Çs a complete update that will surely gain attention and appreciation to those that know it from back in the day and to a younger audience first discovering the magic that lies within.
To round the release off perfectly Karim delivers a long-overdue instrumental version that will open more possibilities of reinterpretation depending on the mix and again widen the appeal of this essential record.
