Candi Staton - When You Wake Up Tomorrow (Joaquin Claussell Remixes)Candi Staton's 'When You Wake Up Tomorrow' lands in 1979 during her brief but telling pivot into disco under Jimmy Simpson, issued via Warner Bros. as both 7" and club ready 12". By this point, Staton had already cut through with southern soul sides and the crossover hit 'Young Hearts Run Free', but her Warner period including the A La Carte LP places her inside a late 70s New York studio system shaped by extended mixes and dancefloor readies. The 12"

Both songs are mixed to perfection by Tom Moulton and both are state-of-the-art lessons in what exhilarating Dance Music is all about

A side explores the romantic theme brought to the table by the lyrics in a more pop/radio edit oriented manner whereas the B-side takes things down a more leftfield route with 3 different excursions in early 90's smooth Balearics ranging from early breaky/triphop nuances to elements borrowing from dancehall music

New Beat/EBM with synth pop/italo influences

the band underwent a transformation

better make some changes soon

On the flip a barrage of drums and glassy oscillations form “Be Anew” with the relentless programming carrying through “Knobbly Knees” taking us firmly into electro territory with robotic vocals and a mechanic drum pattern that shows no sign of waning

The sample sources are still a wild grab bag-children's records
