Black Book Records/Astralwerks have released the Vintage Culture remix of Chris Lorenzo’s ‘California Dreamin’ ft. High Jinx. Vintage Culture amplifies the shifting dynamics of Lorenzo’s reimagined version of The Mamas & The Papas classic 1965 hit, building to exhilarating crescendos and bringing deep, dark effects to the infectious dance floor gem.
“Chris Lorenzo’s new track ‘California Dreamin’‘ is on fire!” says Vintage Culture. “My intention is to throw gasoline on the fire…. thrilled to remix the song, shout out to Chris Lake and the Black Book/Astralwerks team.”
For Brazilian producer/DJ Lukas Ruiz, Vintage Culture is a passion project that aims to unite people through music. Vintage Culture has topped the Billboard Hot Dance, Spotify Dance, and Beatport Main Overall Charts multiple times, racking up more than two billion combined global streams in the process. His collaborations include ‘Coffee’ with Tiësto, ‘It Is What It Is’ featuring Elise LeGrow, and ‘Cali Dreams’ with Fancy Inc featuring The Beach. He’s remixed Meduza, Moby, Diplo, Jorja Smith, David Guetta, and Sia, and appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone Brazil, establishing a reputation as one of the most influential and creative talents of his generation in Brazil and beyond.
‘California Dreamin’ ft. High Jinx stirred the interest of fans when Lorenzo, Chris Lake, and FISHER began playing the record in their summer sets. After its release in October, the track took the #1 spot on Spotify’s Operator, Housewerk, and UK House Music playlists, entered Spotify’s Viral charts in over 10 countries (including the U.S. and U.K.), and appeared on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs tally. Combined global streams quickly soared past 3.5 million, with three million streams on Spotify alone.
Dancing Astronaut said, “House heads rejoice, as one of the most highly sought-after IDs of the summer finally receives an official release.” This Song Is Sick observed, “Without tarnishing the original vocals one bit, [Lorenzo] was able to breathe new life into ‘California Dreamin’ with the power of house music.” Lorenzo is widely acknowledged for pioneering Birmingham’s emergent and increasingly popular Jackin’ house come Bassline hybrid sound, which he simply calls “House & Bass.” He has toured Europe with Skrillex, collaborated with The Streets, Katy B, and Sonny Fodera, and remixed Disclosure, Ed Sheeran, and A-Trak. Lorenzo’s recent releases include ‘Fly With Us’, a collaboration with AC Slater, and ‘Sensational’, the latest single from Anti Up, the duo he founded with UK producer/Black Book Records founder Chris Lake. ‘California Dreamin’ marks Lorenzo’s second release on Black Book, following 2018’s ‘Ectomorph’.
