“Vol 2 delivering the goods and picking up where vol 1 left off. Great collection of reworks and winners here, Dunno what it is about Tip as a tune but seems thats the one I’m instantly drawn whenever I hear a new mix of it, and same goes for these, the Yult mix is crazy but the Hint mix is bigger than Centre Parks, wicked!” King Tee (Ireland)

Having heard Stac’s first single, “Balls Bounce”, back in 2008, Ashley Beedle immediately fell in love with this young lady’s raw talent, and so it is that three years later we can finally commit to vinyl Ashley’s “Return To The Factory” vocal and dub versions; a homage to Factory Records, engineered by the one and only Yam Who?, and possibly set to be one of the biggest dance floor bangers of the summer.

Ashley’s vocal mix will also feature on Stac’s second remix album, “Turn That Light Out – The Remixes: Vol.2”, out mid-April, alongside remixes from Kidkanevil, Alex Patchwork, Hint, Yult, Blue Daisy, Herma Puma and many more!

Look out for Stac on tour with her band this spring/summer, performing tracks from her debut album, and well as remix versions re-worked live and some exciting brand new tracks.

Following on from her infectious and highly acclaimed debut, sublimely soulful vocalist Stac returns with a host of remixes from a selection of producers all at the top of their game. This is the first of two remix projects (the second to be released in February 2011) featuring a stellar line up who’ve been queuing up to add their stamp to Stac’s trademark vocals.

On Volume One of “The Remixes” you’ll find producers de jour, Blue Daisy and Greymatter, along side more established names such as Natural Self and TM Juke, as well as newcomers Elias Linn and Royce Wood Junior, and many more. Look out for producers including Nu:tone and Kidkanevil  in Part 2!

We love Stac – and we’re not the only ones…
