Dec 13, 2011 | 12:14 pmThanks KD. I've never seen the "Stranded" remix you speak of, but I'll be adding "Lay It on the Line" today.

Dec 13, 2011 | 12:10 pmA few weeks after the original dropped - Matra released a remix done by local DJs Dan Moreau and Mario Tremblay (now known as MC Mario). The 8 minutes dub mix on the b-side (with just enough vocals) is also worth playing. Ms. Charles released a very similar sounding follow-up called "Pretty Boys" before she hit it big with her international smash "Lay it on the line".

The Stranded remix is strangely enough much smoother than the original even though the BPMs remain the same and the overall sound is identical.
