Glitterbox is proud to unveil Legacy, an LP celebrating Kathy Brown as one of house music’s most prolific and accomplished vocalists, with label profits from the record going towards her healthcare fund.
“When we found out that Kathy had stage four cancer, she told us that she had never had an album out before and that she’d love to have a body of work in one place. So, we set about collating some of her strongest releases, including four new exclusive remixes from fans of her work including DJ Spen, Michael Gray, Sophie Lloyd and Moplen. I’m excited about this Glitterbox release for one of the fiercest house divas
of our time.” – Seamus Haji, A&R Manager.
The 19-track compilation features four new remixes and edits from the leading house, disco, funk and soul producers of today alongside legacy tracks from her shining career.
The Legacy sampler features her chart-topping collaboration with British production duo Soul Central ‘Strings Of Life (Stronger On My Own)’, first released on Defected, remixed by close label friend Michael Gray. Next, house and disco aficionado Sophie Lloyd also reworks Warren Clarke’s ‘Over You’, a Defected record that defined Kathy Brown as a house music tour de force, with Sophie and her co-writer Darren Morris adding gospel fuelled piano hooks and live bass.
As well as these fresh remixes and reworks, Kathy’s defining releases in their full glory are spotlighted throughout this very special Glitterbox LP (released July 19).
