Skee-Lo - I Wish (Paul Mond Remix)

Indie Bouncin' originator and bootleg boss Paul Mond is back with yet another relaxed remix of a classic cut, this time taking to Skee-Lo's 1995 hit "I Wish." Despite being labelled as a future flip rather than the standard baile flip, this is pure Paul Mond. Cool as anything, Mond is the man Skee-Lo wishes he could be. He just keeps pulling rabbits out of hats with these remixes, flipping the script while still maintaining the original allure. However, unlike his two most recent releases, takes on heavier fares in Ludacris "The Potion" and Sheck Wes "Mo Bamba," this is less transformative and more of a tilt. Whereas the Luda and Sheck takes feel more like cheeky remixes, this one really fits. In the alternate reality that Paul Mond paints, baile funk is always the original and I'll be the first to say it's glorious. Get "I Wish," with his whole discography, via Bandcamp and stayed tuned for more magic from the man.FOLLOW PAUL MOND: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
