A significant part of the Bluestronica project is built on recordings originally released by Black & Tan Records. Drawing from this catalogue, miXendorp reworks selected tracks into new compositions — not by using multitracks, but by reconstructing fragments from the original stereo recordings.
These remixes retain the raw, authentic energy of artists such as Boo Boo Davis, Big George Jackson, Byther Smith, Roscoe Chenier, and Doug MacLeod, while placing them in a new rhythmic and electronic context.

Best known as the lead vocalist of the Chairmen of the Board Harrison Kennedy was born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario, before moving to Detroit to join up with this group that was started as part of the new Holland-Dozier-Holland label Invictus / Hot Wax. In the mid-’70s, Kennedy left the group and struck out on a solo career. Over the years he has been able to pull from styles as varied as funk, soul, R&B, folk, rock, and gospel. In 2008, Kennedy was nominated for Best Blues Recording in Canada’s Juno Awards. Here is a new miXendorp remix of one of his songs. The original recording of this song was only voice and percussion and it was released by Harrison on Black and Tan Records in 2005.
