Here&#8217;s a timeline.</p>
<p><strong>1993:</strong><br />
We made this quirky track Vallée De L&#8217;armes. We released it under our René et Gaston moniker on<a href="http://www.discogs.com/label/Fresh%20Fruit%20Records"> our Fresh Fruit label</a>. Soon it became a pretty big club hit, and to our surprise it even ended up in de Dutch pop charts! Not bad for a song with a tuba in it. <span id="more-1029"></span></p>

<p><strong>1994:</strong><br />
This german group by the name of Scooter released their first single, a cover of Vallée De L&#8217;armes. You might remember Scooter from their cheesy rave songs and a DUDE SHOUTING AT YOU. </p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZxmEvf-kHvo?fs=1&amp;hl=nl_NL"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZxmEvf-kHvo?fs=1&amp;hl=nl_NL" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<p><strong>1998:</strong><br />
Vallée De L&#8217;armes got the hard trance treatment as it got covered by Les Amis.</p>
<p><strong>1999:</strong><br />
Armin Van Buuren remixes Vallée De L&#8217;armes.</p>
<p><strong>2005:</strong><br />
A certain Luc Margeaux made a bumpy house version.</p>

<p><strong>2010</strong><br />
17 years after the first release, Jean Claude Ades&#8217; cover of Vallée De L&#8217;armes (Pleasurekraft Remix) ends up <a href="https://www.beatport.com/de-DE/html/content/label/detail/800/great_stuff_recordings">in the Beatport top 10</a>. </p>

Keeps Changing Your Mind</a>&#8216;. It was a song produced and performed by Roland Clarke, who you also might know from &#8216;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tPCbkGINHo">Armand van Helden&#8217;s Flowers</a>&#8216;. </p>
<p>Soon it became quite a big club hit here in The Netherlands. We both loved the record so we decided to license it for our <a href="http://www.discogs.com/label/Fresh+Fruit+Records">Fresh Fruit</a> Label. For our release we made 2 remixes: Fresh Fruit Deep and Fresh Fruit Dub. Both didn&#8217;t have much vocals in it, not because we didn&#8217;t like them, but because back then we just <a href="http://es.wikizic.org/1-001-001381-Roland-W30.jpg">didn&#8217;t have the equipment</a> to include the full vocals. In those early days our &#8216;studio&#8217; was very basic!</p>
<p>Now, 17 years later, we made a vocal edit of our Fresh Fruit Dub, so you can finally hear it how it was ment to be.<br />
Strictly Rhythm is re-releasing it on the 1st of februari 2010, alongside a remix and dub by <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MR_ApB1hQc">Daniel Bovie &#038; Roy Rox</a>.</p>

<p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> It&#8217;s out now on <a href="http://beatport.com/s/t4pCQt">Beatport!</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last month was a very busy month for us! Lots of gigs and lots of studio work!</p>
<p>Bloemendaal was intense, Dance Valley was massive, Matrixx in the park was crazy, Cannes was posh and mad as hell!</p>
<p>We just finished work on our upcoming &#8216;Defected In The House Amsterdam&#8217; compilation, for which we made lots of special edits and exclusive new tracks, and did collaborations with Baggi Bagovic and Hardsoul. It will be hitting the shops in a few weeks.</p>
<p>Back in 1993 we did a Fresh Fruit Remix of &#8216;South Street Player &#8211; Who Keeps Changing Your Mind&#8217;. At that time we had such crappy equipment, that we couldn&#8217;t do a full vocal mix, but only a dub. We fixed that now and delivered a full vocal edit of this classic Remix. We also remixed the classic Masters At Work Track &#8216;Bass Tone&#8217; by Sole Fusion. Both should be out soon on Strictly.</p>
<p>We also remixed a song by two really big international artists, and we think it turned out pretty neat! Expect that within the next few weeks.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ll be diving back into the studio now and will be preparing for our upcoming gigs.</p>

Now Innervisions Records re-released it for their Secret Weapons series.<br />
It still sounds kinda fresh, so check it out at your favorite download portal (album only) or your local vinyl shop.</p>
