Arthur Baker Presents Dance Masters: Arthur Baker

£39.99

Released: 21st July 2023. This latest instalment of 'Arthur Baker Presents Dance Masters' finds the production/song-writing/remixing maestro taking the spotlight for a long overdue snapshot of his own classic 12-inch mixes during a crucial evolution of dance music, club and pop culture. Arthur Baker helped codify the remixer as artist. His genre-fluid approach to projects has resulted in a joyous myriad of classics that spans many decades. This '80s-focused collection offers a welcome glimpse at Baker's illustrious career and many long out-of-print 12-inch versions and previously unavailable mixes. The 43-track, four CD edition includes a wide array of selections from the likes of Robbie Nevil's 'C'est La Vie', Fleetwood Mac's 'Big Love', Neneh Cherry's 'Buffalo Stance', Jeffrey Osborne's 'Soweto', Freeez's 'I.O.U', Rockers Revenge's 'Walking On Sunshine' and of course the juggernaut 'Planet Rock' with Afrika Bambaataa & Soulsonic Force. All tracks remastered by Nick Robbins at Sound Mastering.
