“Pharrell Williams, Of Montreal, Deerhoof, David Banner and Paul Oakenfold are among the disparate names joining forces for the Maroon 5 remix album “Call & Response,” due Dec. 9 via A&M/Octone,” reported Billboard a few weeks ago. The article continued, “also contributing new versions are Swizz Beatz, Mark Ronson, the Roots’ Questlove, Cut Copy, Just Blaze and Tiesto among others.”
We’re finally getting the first taste of Call & Response with the Neptunes (Pharrell Williams) remixing a Maroon 5 classic, “She Will Be Loved”. The Neptunes make “She Will Be Love” sound a lot more RnB that it already was, and maybe that’s a bit too much. But take a look at the tracklisting, there will be some real killers on this album — my anticipated picks in bold!
1. “If I Never See Your Face Again†– Swizz Beats
2. “Wake Up Call†Feat. Mary J Blige – Mark Ronson
3. “Sunday Morning†– Questlove
