“I See You” by John Beltran by FastFWD
FastFWD music releases another dope project in “I See You.” Noted songwriter, producer John Beltran never disappoints as he lends airy, sexy vocals to the latest addition to the FastFWD repertoire. “I See You” is a full project, mixed, written, performed and produced by Beltran. The Lansing, Michigan native best known for his earlier techno work with Ubiquity and Om records, stays within that same vein of hard to categorize music yet adds a bouncy soulful vibe over groovy percussions making “I See You” a note worthy track even in its original state.
The sultry NuJazz RMX is smooth enough to serve as background ear libation for the lounge scene or pose as a dominating banger for the club. With a Rhodes solo by fellow Michigan native Jeremy Ellis aka Ayro, this pairing offers a saucy remix not too far removed from the original but kicked up just enough to make it so.
Rob Slac of Om Records and Chillin Music lends his signature sound to the lineup. His RMX takes you on a whimsical journey through sound. Its airy beats and looped hooks is a definite club banger!
Rounding out this collection of remixes is FastFWD music’s own Sandman and Riverside. This rendering offers a different spin from the NuJazz and Rob Slac renditions. Its layered affect builds upon sound adding affect one after another. In the end Sandman and Riverside still maintain the bouncy character of the original version, but with a more relaxed and sultry feel.
