Blind Truth ft Tata & Toney – Why Can’t We See (Soulmagic Remix)

Hot off the heels of their current dance smash ‘I Wonder’ ft J-Sun, Danish duo Soulmagic continue to bring the heat with their scorching new remix of Arthur Baker’s 90’s classic from Blind Truth ft Tata & Toney, ‘Why Can’t We See’. Armed and dangerous with BIG soulful vocals from Toney and Tata (Tata who has sung with Michael Jackson and Madonna!), Morten and Mikkel work up a sun-drenched afrocentric booty shaker, laced with warm keys, marimba and a bumping bassline, delivering the perfect soundtrack for bikini clad crew this Pina Colada season!

Soulmagic are the combined forces of the two Danish producer/DJ’s, Morten Trust and Mikkel Wendelboe, who first met 13 years ago on the local club scene, Mikkel a promoter and Morten a DJ. Their first joint release to date was the underground hit ‘Get Your Thing Together’ featuring Ann Nesby (Purple Music, 2010).  Prior to their alliance, Mikkel and Morten were both independent producers for many years. The Soulmagic name was initially used by Morten as a moniker, song title and label name in 2003, under which he produced house cuts including ‘Yah Yah’, ‘Come On, Come On’ (Soulfuric) and the hit release simply called ‘Soulmagic’, signed to Universal. Morten has more than 50 releases and remixes under his belt on labels such as Soulfuric, Swing City, Mn2S, Morehouse and Pacha, also gaining 3 DDJA Awards (Danish DJ Awards) and 2 gold records! He also produced several tracks for the Claude Challe album. Mikkel had also been producing his own releases including ‘Into My Life’ (Reelgroove/ Hed Kandi’s Beach House), along with several remixes, but after unleashing his single ‘Free Your Mind’ on the Soulmagic label in 2008, Mikkel and Morten joined forces and the Soulmagic production partnership was born.

Soulmagic have a fantastic production portfolio including more hits on Jamie Lewis’ Purple Music – ‘We Love This Music’ with the late Sabrynah Pope and ‘New Dimension’, more recently ‘Love In The Club’ with Louis Hale and ‘BlackJack’. In 2010 they created THE hype track of Miami WMC sampling Aretha Franklin’s ‘Jump To It’, known as ‘Aretha’s Groove’. It rocked the rafters of South Beach and still to this day it remains an unreleased, underground classic. Their combined remix portfolio is equally as impressive, incuding artists such as Barry White, Jocelyn Brown, Jon Cutler, Eric Gadd, Ce Ce Rogers, Cool Million, George Mccrae, Miguel Migs ft Peven Everett, Jay-J, Grant Nelson’s Swing City records, The Sunburst Band and Danny Clark & Jay Benham ft Robert Owens, among others.  In 2012 they released the massive club hit ‘Someone Like You’ featuring J-Sun, that held the Traxsource no.1 position for an amazing 6 weeks, featured on worldwide store playlists including Abercrombie & Fitch and H&M and saw Soulmagic scooping the Best Upfront Release of the Year at the Danish Deejay Awards! In Spring 2014 saw Soulmagic team up again with J-Sun for the one awaited follow up to ‘Someone Like You’, ‘I Wonder’, which was supported by the late and great Frankie Knuckles, Tony Humphries, Grant Nelson and many more. The boys are busy back in the studio, watch this space for a full vocal version of ‘I Wonder’ and a remix for Sir Piers ft Monique Bingham called ‘American In Chelsea’ too.
