Originally unearthed and released by BBE as
part of the Virgin Ubiquity (Unreleased
Recordings 1976-1981) project, ’Sugar’ is a
smooth funk/disco gem recorded in 1978, which
features vocals from Carla Vaughan as well as
Roy Ayers himself. Joey Negro’s iconic 2004
club mix brought the track to a wider audience
and became the soundtrack to that year’s Winter
Music Conference, which rocketed it directly onto
dance-floors the world over. Fast forward 12
years and a relatively new name on the scene,
French edit maestro The Reflex has put
together his own special take on the song, using
only the original parts. Counting Nile Rogers &
Kid Creole among many fans of his work, The
Reflex specialises in crafting subtly produced
reworks, exclusively using elements taken from
the original versions.
’The Reflex Revision’ of ’Sugar’ is light and
elegant, letting each part breathe on its own
whilst making the most of the potent percussion
and horn sections. Created with DJs in mind and
with summer on the way, we might just have yet
another pool party classic on our hands. An
instrumental version is also included, which
further showcases those incredible original parts
and creates a real dance floor-friendly groove.
