Rae, Mandal & Forbes – That Feeling (Rae VIP Mix) [Get Twisted Records]
Rae takes things deeper with the VIP Mix of her massive collaboration with Mandal & Forbes, ‘That Feeling’, released on Get Twisted Records on 17 February. When the original cut was released in December, it immediately made a huge impact on dance-floors and went Top 20 in the Beatport House charts.
Rae’s VIP Mix strips back the piano house of the original, making it darker and sexier for the peak time dance-floor, but still featuring Rae’s powerful vocals and sharp production. Rae is one of the few artists in the industry who combines a successful career as singer songwriter, DJ, remixer and producer. From her first release ‘Can’t Stop’ with Kings of Tomorrow, Rae has gone on to drive a quality house agenda, with confident productions such as ‘Hide U’ with Sandy Rivera, ‘Another Day’, ‘Deep In Your Love’ and the massive Top 20 release ‘Take Me Away’ with DJ S.K.T.
This year, Rae kicked off with ‘Groove On’ alongside Siege and a fresh collaboration with fellow UK producer Kokiri and drum and bass legend Adam F for ‘Harmony’ on Danny Howard’s new label, Nothing Else Matters. Rae’s live sets are built on emotive performance, smartly positioned soulful, improv vocals over A-grade tech DJing. Whilst building her fan base worldwide, Rae has held residencies at Pacha Ibiza, Ushuaia and Lio, and clocked up prominent spots at festivals and huge dance events, like iTunes, Lakedance, Pacha, Sunburn, ADE and WMC, plus regular sets on home turf at Egg club and Ministry of Sound and global tours with Defected and Pacha.
