"Another, perhaps my favourite remix of Honey. Dope"

hypelg.com
"Fresh from Paris, this remix of Honey by Erykah Badu has a reggae vibe to it bought to you courtesy of Grant Phabao."

monkeyboxing.com
"In a move little short of genius, French DJ/Producer Grant Phabao has reggae’ed up Honey - rendering Badu's neo-soul track into a dead-ringer for the sound of sixties Kingston. The sort of thing that causes impromptu bumping and grinding, it’s free to download and you can check the vid. too - what's not to like? Click the link and drop some smooth moves! Heretic DJs who play with mp3s can even hit up parisdjs.com for a higher quality sound file"

thegoldbrick.net
"Grant Phabao: Parisan Dubmeister - Grant Phabao is a producer and DJ from Paris, France who puts out some heavy riddims inna di dub and roots tradition. Unfortunately, his cuts are quite difficult to come across and are mostly distributed in highly-limited 7″ pressings or featured as remixes on 12″s. Below are a few cuts of his that are simply outstanding. Most recent is his remix of Erykah Badu’s "Honey", next up is his reworking of "Uptight" by the legendary Stevie Wonder, and the final record is "Fever" featuring the mighty Lone Ranger of Studio One fame. Other vibes I have of his, but not listed here, are two killer Alice Russell remixes; "Humankind" (Tuff ‘n Uff Skank Remix feat. Lone Ranger) and "Seven Nation Army" (GP Remix). Definitely grab these slabs of pure fyah below and if you happen to have any other pressings of his, send them my way. It’d be much appreciated."

"Parisdjs ексклузивно ни поднасят лежерен и мелодичен реге микс на Honey от Grant Phabao. Досега парчето съм слушал във версии на Dj Day, Aeon, Captain Planet, Little Brother, Clueless (dubstep) и кой ли не, но представената преработка попада сред най-добрите."

Hello good people of the paris dj's community!

I'd like to request a 256kbs (or better :) version of the new phabao remix so i can spin
it in clubs here in helsinki. And if possible i'd like the Fever remix too. Both of them are killers!
When are we going to see a full length album from Phabao?

PS. Loving the site!! keep it up

Hey, loving that Erykah Badu: Honey - Grant Phabao Remix would it be possible to send me a link to a better quality file so i could play it in my sets?

Simon Winkler Simon Winkler ·  20 April 2009, 15:32

Dear Paris DJs,
I hope all is very well. My name is Simon Winkler and I'm working as the Music Co-Ordinator at the metropolitan radio station 3RRR in Melbourne, Australia, and also co-present the program Breaking & Entering http://www.rrr.org.au/program/break... I regularly check your excellent site for music updates and recently downloaded the Erykah Badu Honey remix by Grant Phabao which is great. If still possible, I'd love to request a high-quality mp3 version of the Erykah Badu remix, as I'd appreciate the chance to play this on my show and add it to the New Releases rack in the studio library for other presenters to access as well. Thanks very much in advance.
Best regards,
simon

Grant Phabao presents The Lone Ranger - The Iphone Connection

Grant Phabao The Lone Ranger The Iphone Connection

The iPhone Connection song is a tribute to the co-founder and CEO of Apple who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer this summer. It was recorded at Paris DJs studios just a few days before Steve Jobs passed away. Jamaican DJ The Lone Ranger is on vocal duties with French dubmeister Grant Phabao at the controls & playing all instruments. The Lone Ranger is one of Jamaica's most influential early dancehall DJs. He was twice voted N°1 deejay on the island, in 1979 and 1980. He helped pioneer a newly rhythmic, on-the-beat rhyming style that led DJ toasting into the modern age, and punctuated his lyrics with bizarre exclamations and sound effects ("bim" and "ribbit" were his favorites) that made him perhaps the most imaginative stylist of his time. He had originally recorded The Walkman Connection way back in 1984 (on "DJ Daddy" / Techniques), now fully updated to 2011 as The Iphone Connection !
