Hertfordshire's own Bobby Martini brings us another little gem titled
"Break the Ray Down A Little Bit". Although Martini has only been producing mash-ups
since mid 2006 he has already shown traces of sensibility, maturity, and understanding of
form and structure akin to experienced mash-up producers. In his most recent creation,
Martini fuses Madonna's popular "Ray of Light" acapella with Tears for Fears and
Liberty X. The end result is a well crafted club hit (Ray of Light) turned '90s
soft rock anthem (Tears for Fears) with a dash of "come hither"-sas (Liberty X). Aside for the
somewhat clumsy title (sorry Bobby) this mash-up deserves a little love from your
REPEAT button. Download it and enjoy.
Acapella: Madonna - "Ray of Light"
Acapella: Liberty X - "Just A Little"
Instrumental: Tears for Fears - "Break It Down Again"

What a beauty! This pulls at the right heart strings and dancing strings. Madonna's vocal is rendered as more thoughtful and her thoughts lyrically tentative. Liberty X's vocal stabs really "work" the journey and the Tears for Fears musical bed beautifully links it all together. An inspired Mash!

Just listened to the track. Great pick.
Very well produced and executed like any Bobby Martini track!
Smooth as a baby's butt! And I especially dig this one with the instrumental synths really giving this that little bit of edge.
And that breakdown.. hell yes.
