Still Miles
DJ Day & Miles Bonny
(Download Only), 2009
[via fresh selects and/or like a throttle]

I’ve featured DJ Day on this site before. Last month he posted two great covers of songs from Instant Vintage, Raphael Saadiq’s solo debut, for free download on his blog. Be sure to visit one of the links above and download “Can You Feel Me.” The other song is “Still Ray” which is a collaboration with DJ Day and Kansas City DJ/Singer/Producer/Trumpet player Miles Bonny and features his singing and trumpet playing. There are so many good songs on Instant Vintage that “Still Ray” didn’t stand out to me but revisiting it after hearing this cover, I fear I’ve slept on it a little, especially the tuba baseline.

DJ Day talks about how how the songs came about on his blog.

The Saadiq song is based on Dr. Dre’s “Still D.R.E.” which may or may not be based on this Grant Green song.

Miles made a video for the song, here are few stills from it that I think are kind of funny. Click on the images to see the video.



p.s. - I’ve since found the song sampled for my last DJ Day post.

Songs are available for two weeks.
