Romania goes Pop! Diva Loredana revels in remix orgy, “all for the love of magic sounds”

Probably unheard of outside her native Romania, diva extraordinaire Loredana has recently been thrown into the hands of fellow Romanian Vlad Stoian – the founder of the Warmer Climes blog – for a mammouth remix orgy of the highest order. Her latest single ‘Rain Rain’ has been re-worked in the region of 50 times by various bands and production outfits. Most notably; Henning Fürst from Gothenburg pop royalty The Tough Alliance (available now via Pitchfork) and Stephen Ramsay of Young Galaxy whose brand new Dan Lissvik produced single was revealed here yesterday.

A highlight from the project is the remix produced by Kalle J, one half of Swedish duo Karl x Johan. Here, Kalle J transforms the original into a six minute odyssey of dark synths and pulsating house rhythms that eventually explode into a technicolor downpour. ‘Rain Rain’ is due for release sometime this month, keep your eyes peeled on Warmer Climes for more info.

A blogger that seems to exist on this planet only for the love of music and what it does to his soul, he’s one of the more interesting/passionate/scary forces within the music blogosphere. Here’s what he has to say on the project: “The best artists I know, creating an inspirational galaxy of new sounds. I hope you enjoy my idea as much as I do. It is a huge experiment, all for your pleasure – no money or commercial interests involved. All for the love of magic sounds”.
