One of the most celebrated tunes from the MoreHouse Records Catalogue; the original release of "Midnight" found its way into the record bags (remember those) of tastemakers, in Nov. 2003. Original support included a 'Who's Who' list of House music legends such as Frankie Knuckles, Tony Humphries, Roger Sanchez, & Kerri Chandler just to name a few. A crowd favorite on any given night, and the perfect tune to drop when the clock strikes twelve, Midnight is also highly sought for the DJ Tools which were included on the original vinyl release. It's also been featured on numerous compilations such as the critically acclaimed "AfterDark/Los Angeles" series, OM Records "Summer Sessions" and most recently Ministry of Sounds "The Mashup Mix 2009" earlier this year.
Fast forward 6 years later to today and we're proud to unleash a slew of blazing hot new mixes (including the winning remix from our "Midnight 2010" Remix Contest) that are primed & ready to wreak havoc on dance floors worldwide.

REVIEWS
Back in November 2003, the Groove Junkies released "Midnight", a track that has become one of their most celebrated tunes to date, featuring uplifting vocals by Diane Carter. Right in time for 2010, a package of sizzling new mixes has arrived that is set to put this track back on top of the charts and playlists. Groove Junkies kick things off with their slightly dark tribal workout fueled with atmospheric melodies. Next they re-touch their classic 'Media Noche Mix' and add new afro/soca style drums and percussion to intensify the vibe. Stuttering Munx contribute a deep yet soulful mix that lets the vocals shine, a tougher dub perfect for those peak time moments and a truly useful 'New Years Eve Countdown Tool (Accapella)'. DJ Pascali delivers a powerful funk soaked remix with a definite Nu-Disco touch, while Johnny Dirtbag comes up with a fresh jackin' style remix spiced with wicked breakdowns and a funky as hell bassline.

Groove Junkies returns with the 2010 remixes package of their classic "Midnight". Their own 2010 remix is a solid funky affair enriched with the uplifting vocals by Diane Carter, while their "Media noche re-touch" is a fresher and intense rework, filled with warm percussions and jazzy elements. Stuttering Munx provides a deepr remix, as well as a powerful dub for the peak-time moments, and DJ Pascali delivers a powerful funky/disco rework.

TRACK DESCRIPTIONS
Groove Junkies 2010 Remix & Instrumental
GJs Evan Landes hits the mark dead on! He offers up a deep, tribal house workout with tech elements laced in, moody strings and familiar keys that lend themselves perfectly to Diane's hair raising vocal and the fellas spoken word.
Groove Junkies Media Noche“ Re-Touch
This one has been re-mastered and includes new afro/soca style drums and percussion. If you liked the original 'Media Noche' Mix than you'll definitely want to take this one out for a ride.
Stuttering Munx Vocal Mix
The always reliable Stuttering Munx deliver again with two superb productions! The 'Vocal Mix' is soulful and slightly electrified, giving plenty of room for Diane's killer vocal to shine. This one's got plenty of hump and can be dropped either early or late.
Stuttering Munx Tough Love Dub
The 'Tough Love Dub' is a harder, funkier affair; stripping the vocal back to a few well used stabs, leaving the emphasis on rhythm & percussion and driving bottom end. This one's ready to destroy any dance floor!
Stuttering Munx NYE Countdown Tool
The guys turn in a definitive NYE Countdown Tool complete with a cheering crowd, sound FX, the countdown and Big Ben himself. ESSENTIAL!
Di Pascali's Early Morning Mix
A powerful mix with funky bass & clav, amazing strings & percussion and great keyboard work from Paris' rising star Di Pascali! Nu Disco House at its best. Don't sleep!!
Johnny Dirtbag Remix
Hailing from The Netherlands, Midnight Remix Contest Winner Johnny Dirtbag delivers a bangin', jackin' style mix that will no doubt rattle a few bass bins. Fresh, funky... something new fo' yo ass!
