‘TOMMIE SUNSHINE PRESENTS ULTRA.ROCK REMIXED’
OUT NOW ON ULTRA RECORDS
IMPACTING RADIO NOW
–Tommie Sunshine, as told to Tricia Romano, Village Voice (April 24, 2007)
TOMMIE SUNSHINE PRESENTS ULTRA.ROCK REMIXED—out now on Ultra Records—is the only compilation from the premiere dance music label that highlights remixes and productions by one particular artist, those of Tommie Sunshine himself. Over the next few months Tommie will tour the U.S. to promote his new offering which features the single “Dance Among The Ruins.” Thus far 15 dates have been confirmed that will take Tommie to the best nightlife spots across the land.
Brooklyn producer and DJ Tommie Sunshine is legendary for remixing indie rock for the consumption of tasteful clubgoers, turning tracks by The Gossip, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Fall Out Boy and others into gigantic dance sizzlers, all of which appear on Ultra.Rock Remixed. Part of Ultra Records' remix compilation series, this two-disc set aims to please dance-music fans and rockers alike with Tommie’s reworkings of Shiny Toy Guns’ “Le Disko,” Peaches’ “Boys Wanna Be Her” and Panic! At The Disco’s “The Only Difference Between Martyrdom And Suicide Is Press Coverage.”
One of the original productions that appear on Sunshine’s mix along with "Limit Of Your Mind" and "Tokyo Pollution" is “Dance Among The Ruins.” Written by Tommie and Mark Verbos, it highlights contributions from an all-star cast of musicians including Nik Zinner of The Yeah Yeah Yeah’s on guitar and Johan Bengtsson of The Sounds on bass with Peaches and Tommie on vocals. “To re-interpret this track I called on people whose music had been given the remix treatment already so it was a treat to have them on an original track,” states Tommie.
