CALLERLAB Releases - "I Feel Like Dancing" and "I Like to Move It" (Extended Patter)

We were so excited about the CALLERLAB convention this year that we dropped TWO new releases at the convention. First up is an extended patter version of "I Like to Move It." This song was made famous by the Madagascar movie franchise. I first heard the song playing Dance Dance Revolution with our kids. (I am grateful there are no videos available of this.) This is just a fun song that makes people smile and move. We limited the vocals and had Jimmy build the track from simple electric guitar fills, transitioning to some flute and organ, and finishing the track with some pretty killer electric guitar.

Next up is an exciting new singing call, "I Feel Like Dancing." “I Feel Like Dancing” is a brand new hit, dropped by Jason Mraz on February 15th this year, making it just over two months on the market. I discovered it as I was channel surfing on SiriumXM while driving home from my Thursday class. If you haven’t seen his video, check it out. It’s just good fun!

I reserved it immediately and we fast-tracked with Jimmy so I could have it ready for release at the CALLERLAB convention this past week. We JUST made it in time. I got the final tracks with David’s vocal late Saturday night, just hours before opening the Chic booth the next day.

David Mee did a fantastic job on the male range vocal. He and I both took the rough tracks for a few test drives as we tweaked the arrangement to make sure it was working the way we hoped before we finalized everything and laid down all the live instruments and background vocals.

CHIC 4086 is the extended patter of "I Like to Move It."

CHIC 1087 in the male vocal range features the vocal by Staff Caller, David Mee.

CHIC 2087 in the female vocal range features Producer, Shauna Kaaria.
