New 12" preceding his new album!

This release sees 2 reworkings of the title track - US mainstay of conscious hip hop & electronica Shafiq Husayn literally leapt at the chance to remix The Man and gives it a minor mood feel, with spacey synthesiser lines added to emphasise this most memorable of melodies.

Omars' friend & musical collaborator Maddslinky (aka Zed Bias) came with a remix from a pumping, contemporary club direction, the driving beat coupled with spacy breakdowns and his trademark production skills, gives this track an unexpected and most welcome reworking that is tailor made for some frenetic dance floor action.

And finally, completing the circle that began all the way back in the early 1990's Omar has completely re recorded his classic love song 'There's Nothing Like This', which this time features bass player to the Gods Pino Palladino.
