Flux BPM TV: Laidback Luke ft. Wynter Gordon - Speak Up incl official music video

1 - Speak Up (Original Mix)
2 - Speak Up (Chris Lake Remix)

Laidback Luke is ready to release his long-awaited single "Speak Up", this time teaming up with NYC vocalist Wynter Gordon who gives the track chart topping credentials.

Already well known for a multitude of collaborations with various big names including David Guetta, Diplo and A-Trak, Laidback Luke more recently hooked up with Sander van Doorn on
the stellar track Who’s Wearing The Cap, a mash up of trance, progressive and electro. Luke's
latest collaboration with Arno Cost and Norman Doray "Trilogy" went successful on charts in no time. 2011 also saw Luke enjoying chart success on UK Top 40 hit, "Natural Disaster" with Example, as well as his work with Steve Aoki and the master of crunk Lil’ Jon on "Turbulence" that took over Radio 1 airwaves.

Never one to shy away from an edgier sound, Laidback Luke injects a high dose of energy to Speak Up with a stomping build-up throughout the first half of the track that leads to a softer, suspenseful melody, supported by Wynter Gordon’s vocals. Luke then goes full steam ahead and launches into another intense, aggressive build up to see the track through to the end. The perfect recipe for a chart crossover club anthem!

In addition to working with fellow stalwarts of the electronic music industry, Luke has also remixed stellar pop acts from Black Eyed Peas, David Guetta, Calvin Harris, Tiesto, MSTRKRFT ft. John Legend, Dizzee Rascal, Avicii and Moby to name a few. Its not just producing music that has keeps Luke busy. With his very own Super You&Me tent at Creamfields and a residency at Cream Ibiza last summer where he hosted the Mixmag Terrace on six dates, we can only wonder when he ever has any time to be “Laidback”..!

The Speak Up package includes remixes from Chris Lake, Mark Knight, Oliver Twizt, Moska and Das Kapital who all put their own unique stamp on the track.


Tha track is released on New State Music in UK as well



                                    
Dimitri Kechagias review: Once again the hot Dutch super house master Laidback Luke is going to smash the clubs and flirt with the mainstream charts as well with his latest house anthem Speak Up with the lovely vocals of  NYC vocalist Wynter Gordon. The remix package is very extensive but from WePlay we got just two of the great versions included in it. First of all is the original mix that is a big room dirty dutch style house rocker with twisted electro beats and playful agressive basslines. The rough environment becomes a little bit lighter with Wynter Gordon performance that sounds so lovely, romantic but dynamic with attitude  too demanding love and attention from her loved one. It will be hard not to Speak UP and shout loud while you dance on this dynamite.  The talented Chris Lake does his remix on this anthem and he service a massive feel good hands in the air version that is larger than life and tougher than the original mix. So groovy, energetic, pumping, wobbly and lifefull that will cause many sonic electro shocks on the dancefloor. If you search for less vocal version this one will satisfy you as Chris uses only the main vocal line with Speak Up repeated again and again the rest of the vocals in a distorted way. Its definitely peak time cracker for more underground dancefloors. Dont miss Laidback Luke at Tomorrowland 2012 festival in Belgium. He will host his own area and we still dont know his guests. We hope he will choose the best ones. Love IT!
