Vintage Music Label is proud to unveil “Commonplace feat. John Russell” – an electrifying collaborative journey that marries timeless songwriting with cutting‐edge electronic production. Originally written by John Russell, a gifted songwriter from Peterborough whose early work once shimmered with promise before life took an unexpected turn, this track has been reborn through the visionary efforts of Stark D and the innovative production touch of Dashdot.
In 2021, while sifting through a trove of archival tunes, Stark D rediscovered the unreleased gem “Commonplace.” Recognising its potential, he immediately contacted John Russell to reimagine the song, inviting him to lend his soulful vocal delivery to the project. Soon after, Stark D brought his longtime collaborator Dashdot on board to add dynamic synth layers, infusing the track with a fresh and modern vitality.
The result is a heady blend of deep progressive techno and melodic house & techno, driven by a pulsating bassline and punctuated by a striking lead that is designed to set dance floors alight. “Commonplace feat. John Russell” captures an irresistible fusion of nostalgic emotion and contemporary club energy, promising to resonate with DJs and dance music connoisseurs alike.
This project is a celebration of artistic revival and creative collaboration, bridging the gap between a forgotten classic and today’s electronic music landscape. The track will be available across digital platforms and in a limited-edition physical vinyl format, catering to both streaming audiences and collectors who value tangible musical artistry.
