Check Soundcloud if you want to check out the remixes in your ear holes – yeah!!

Your tracks will be included on the upcoming re-release of our 2001 debut Solarized [resfreshed].

Top effort from all entrants. We wish we could include them all but 4 is the magic number!

Today we’ve released Promise Ft Olivier Daysoul, the second single off the album Low and Behold, High and Beyond. The track was produced in true Sola Rosa collaboration style with Andrew Spraggon writing the music and working with Olivier via skype, phone and email, and Olivier recording the vocals in London. The track was  mixed by Yaron Fuchs, whose expertise behind the boards has seen him work with artists such as Talib Kweili, Public Enemy and Kings of Leon, while mastering was done by Ricardo Gutierrez (Justin Timberlake, Just Blaze).

The video was produced by Rockwell Music and directed by Mikey Rockwell, and shot both in NZ and in London.

We are now running a remix competition for the instrumental track Dont Leave Home off our debut album Solarized released in 2001.

Conditions: The entries close on 1st March 2013. Winners will be announced within the following week. The winning remixes will be released as bonus tracks with the rereleased album later this year.

Instructions: You can download stems and info from our Dropbox public folder via our website. If your having trouble or simply dont want to use Dropbox, please email us via the website and we’ll work out an alternative delivery of the stems.
