DESCRIPTION:
2x12 Deep House, Vocal House, Soul & R&B Remixes From Allstar Cast Inc Kenny Dope, Joe Clausell, DJ Spinna & Many More
Impressive Collective and BBE Music present Brighter The Days - The Remixes, a new collection built around Omar's epic 9th studio album.
The past year has seen Omar on particularly strong form, including two sold-out US tours, standout appearances on NPR’s 'Tiny Desk', BBC TV’s 'Later with Jools Holland' and Channel 4’s 'Sunday Brunch', whilst his guest appearances with various social media stars including DJ AG Online and collaboration with Donae’O on the viral hit 'Nights Like This' resulting in a growing younger audience. This collection draws together extraordinary reinterpretations from the Brighter The Days album, from a dream ticket of legendary and forward-thinking producers; namely Kenny Dope, Joe Claussell, DJ Spinna, Illa J and Super D & Maestro. Of Kenny Dope’s remix of “Lovey Dovey” (with Raheem DeVaughn and Eric Roberson), Omar says that “you can definitely see people locking and popping to that one!”, while he describes Joe Claussell’s two versions of “There’s Much Love In The World” as “simply epic”. Alongside Illa J’s rework of “Love Is Like” featuring India.Arie and Super D & Maestro’s remix of “I’ve Been Waiting”, the collection is a landmark extension of Omar's magnum opus long player.

2. Omar Akram is the son of a United Nations diplomat, Omar Akram spent many of his early years traveling the world, soaking up the musical traditions of such exotic locales as Afghanistan, Cuba, France, and the Czech Republic.
By the age of 14, he was considered a piano prodigy. In his late teens, he discovered the boundary-pushing sounds of Jean Michel Jarre (France), Kitaro (Japan), and Vangelis (Greece), and began to absorb their independent musical influences. At the same time, Omar Akram remained intrigued by such classical composers as Bach and Mozart, and used much of their thematic coherence, comprehensible structure, and clear rhythmic control to craft his own original compositions.
3. Omar is a two-piece punk band rooted in Philadelphia, PA. They released a CD titled "I'm Not Mad, I'm Just Mad That You're Mad" in April 2010.
