“Feeling Good” is a classic song by Nina Simone, but strangely I heard it for the first time a few years ago, when I was on holiday at the seaside. Well, maybe I noticed for the first time.

As the song started to play, I was hit by a handful of paradoxal feelings that I still remember: Despite the fact she was singing about her good sensation, there was pain and sufference in the voice.

I loved immediately that ambiguous expressivity, and I was attracted to explore it somehow. I decided to remix that tune.

I visualized a dark and dirty, strong version with an important rhythm pace and an obsessive acid synth riff, to be enshroud by her smooth, warm voice.
