If a long winter and a late spring have you in a low mood, there’s nothing like a new twist on a summer classic to re-inspire all the feels of the summer season. Viceroy’s Jet Life series of remixes has proven to do exactly that, mixing his signature tropicool house with the old-school flavors of Will Smith, Mark Morrison, and Ginuwine, just to name a few. It's not every day that a producer has the courage to tackle iconic favorites from the past, and Viceroy has built a clever sound around just that.
This week’s throwback is Nelly’s 2000 anthem “Ride Wit Me”, a timeless ode to backseat cruising. With Nelly’s playful lyrics infused with the warm synths and funky basslines of the San Francisco producer, Viceroy proves once again that summertime is all the time. Head on over to Viceroy’s Facebook page and grab this one for free download before the summer’s heat matches that of this track.
