PERCY FAITH ORCHESTRA-Theme from ''A summer place'' (Dodi's crossover mix) (1960)

For today's post I choose something pretty much different than usual, but still...
Thanks to my parents my musical interests are far more wide than focus on just one style or genre. I remember this track since I was just a kid (track is actually pretty much older than me) and everytime I hear it it brings back nice memories to my childhood.
Excellent score composed by Max Steiner for 1959 movie ''A summer place'' It is one of the most well known examples of beautiful music.

Over the years many different versions were made but this one by Percy Faith Orchestra is my favourite. Original has 2:32 in lenght....crossover 6:08...have fun

STYLE COUNCIL-My ever changing moods (Dodis crossover mix) (1984)

I knew their music long before I discovered their name. I knew their name also....long before I discovered that I actually know their music so well. Years passed by and they are still one of my favourite 80's band. ''It didn't matter'', ''Long hot summer''...uf uf...amazing...''The lodgers'', ''Shout to the top''...fantastic...''Boy who cried wolf'', ''You're the best thing''...one better than the other. Sure among their best, one place must be for ''My ever changing moods''.
For this crossover I used acoustic, 3:39 long version (original already exist on 12''). Crossovered...clocks at exactly 7:00...enjoy.

TOTO-Africa (Dodi's crossover mix) (1984)

1984 was, is and will be on top of my favourite music years. Something out of space, beyond our understanding happend I guess, and we have so many amazing tracks today. Not many years in pop music history can compare 1984.
One of the alltime greatest for sure is ''Africa'' from Steve Lukather and crew factory. Longest existing original version is 6:02 minutes long (correct me if I'm wrong) while most common and known is album or single version 4:55 long. Exactly that one I used to create this 8:55 long crossover. Have fun.

HUMAN LEAGUE-Do or die (Dodis crossover mix) (1981)

First of all....I WISH YOU ALL HAPPY NEW YEAR...

The Human League 30th anniversary remix project from Neils of Danish Human League fan-site The Black Hit Of Space is still up and running.
Here's one more crossover made exclusively for this occasion.
Original comes from ''Dare'' LP, of course, and here's 8:39 minutes long crossover.

DAVID LANZ & PAUL SPEER

I was nicely asked to re-post DAVID LANZ & PAUL SPEER-Behind the waterfall crossover posted here in february because download link expired.
Here's new link and two more.
As you already know, my crossovers are extended versions, without big changes to original sound of the track. Todays two links are little bit different. I simply added some rhythm to those new age lullabies and now you can use them to make you sleep as well as to wake you up in the morning. Works fine with my two years old daughter.
Rhythm was added just for experiment...over time...maybe I'll make it seriously :)

HUMAN LEAGUE-Louise (Dodi's crossovermix v 1.0) (1984)

I almost forgot about this crossover. I made it...hmm...year...year and a half ago. Lately I discovered it on one of my backup CD's. At the time it was made I still didn't name my remixes as ''crossover mix''...so...this one I had to rename.

Original lenght of 4:54 (on 12'' single) is stretched up to 7:09. Hope you're gonna like it. Have fun....enjoy life.

TOTO-Georgy Porgy (Dodi's crossover mix) (1978)

Like many others I discovered Toto after ''Africa'' back in 1982. It was actually impossible not to know them after ''Africa'', ''Rosanna''...etc. Logical move was to look closely to their discography. Than I bumped on 1978 smash ''Georgy Porgy'' with excellent Cheryl Lynn as guest vocal. Of course....with only 5:07 on 12'' or 4:09 on album...it was really little bit to short for me. Here's first touch....7:00 crossover made from album version only.
