“Dream a Little Dream of Me" was written in 1931 with music by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt, lyrics by Gus Kahn. It was first recorded (in 1931) by Ozzie Nelson and his band, and since has been covered/recorded more than 60 times! The version with the highest chart ratings was by The Mamas and the Papas, and also served as our inspiration.
According to Wikipedia, "The group had often sung the song for fun, having been familiarized with it by member Michelle Phillips, whose father had been friends with the song's co-writer, Fabian Andre, in Mexico City where Michelle Phillips' family had resided when she was a young girl. "Mama" Cass Elliot suggested to group leader John Phillips that the group record "Dream a Little Dream of Me".
Each song package includes four instrumental tracks, music with or without the background vocals (BGV) and each of those with and without the melody line. "NM" in a file name indicates "no melody." You will also receive the sample vocal track and cue sheets in multiple file formats.

“Drive My Car" is massive Beatles hit, first released on the 1965 Rubber Soul album. It was primary written by Paul McCartney with some lyrical contributions from John Lennon. "Drive My Car" was recorded on 13 October 1965 during the Beatles' first recording session to extend past midnight. McCartney worked closely with George Harrison on the basic rhythm track, the pair playing, in author Ian MacDonald's description, "similar riffing lines on bass and low guitar", respectively, as per Harrison's suggestion. Harrison had been listening to Otis Redding's "Respect" at the time and, as a result of this influence, "Drive My Car" contains more bottom end than previous Beatles recordings, mimicking the bass-heavy sound captured in Redding's Memphis studio; as Ian MacDonald points out, the bassline appears to be directly derived from the bassline of Redding's version of "Respect".
Each song package includes two instrumental tracks, music with and without the melody line, along with the sample vocal track and cue sheets in multiple file formats. "NM" in a file name indicates "no melody."

“There's a Kind of Hush” was written by Les Reed and Geoff Stephens and originally recorded by Stephen’s group, the New Vaudeville Band, in 1967. Their version was a major hit in Australia and South Africa, but unfortunately for them, Herman’s Hermits recorded a cover that was released in the rest of the world almost simultaneously. The Herman's Hermits version hit the Top 30 on the US charts, peaking at #4 (making it the group’s first top ten hit).
Our release is based on the 1976 release from The Carpenters. We worked hard in the studio to match the musical style and feeling of their megahit.
Each song package includes two instrumental tracks, music with and without the melody line, along with the sample vocal track and cue sheets in multiple file formats. "NM" in a file name indicates "no melody."

"Butter" is an extended patter based on the BTS hit of the same name. The original cut by BTS (wildly popular Korean pop group) was released in May of 2021. At the time of our patter release, their YouTube video boasted over 700 MILLION views in less than a year's time. We discovered the song when it played on a commercial during a football game and immediately knew it would make a great piece of patter music. Of course, we had to throw our own little Easter egg as well so if you hear a few measures that throw back to the 70's, it isn't your imagination.

"Deep Purple" is a new collaborative release from Rhythm Records and Chic Recordings, featuring producers Wade Driver and Shauna Kaaria on the vocal track for this new duet.
The music for “Deep Purple” was written by Peter DeRose and published as a piano composition in 1933. Sheet music sales made the song so popular that Mitchell Parish added lyrics in 1938.
One of the most popular releases of the song (and our inspiration) was recorded in 1963 by brother and sister duo, Nino Temple and April Stevens. This version won the grammy for "Best Rock and Roll Record."
When you purchase this package, you will receive the vocal track and eight additional tracks that will allow you to duet with either Wade or Shauna, or music only to sing alone with another caller. Each option comes with or without the melody line.
This is the second duet collaboration between Rhythm Records and Chic Recordings. The first, RRC 1001 – Let it Be Me, was produced by Wade Driver and released in April of 2019. You can preview and purchase that release at www.rhythmrecords.biz.
