Nina Simone – Take Care Of Business (Solomun Mix) [Verve]

Solomun delivers a composed reinterpretation of Nina Simone’s “Take Care Of Business,” presenting the classic recording through a refined club lens while keeping the original vocal firmly in the foreground. Released via Verve Records as part of its celebratory Nina Simone remix series, the release contributes to a wider effort to revisit her catalog through carefully considered electronic reinterpretations that extend her reach without altering the core character of her work. The remix is out now on streaming platforms worldwide, with a physical release available through Verve Records.

Nina’s vocal performance was always the foundation of the original. Solomun works with this fact rather than around it, building from below with a melodic bassline that carries the groove and a synth line that unfolds slowly and deliberately. The production remains minimalistic and precise, allowing the vocal to operate as the central force it has always been. With his remix, Solomun opts for gradual progression for a result that settles into a space that’s more soothing than euphoric, keeping one foot in the modern club while preserving the soulful ethos of the original.

The remix arrives amid an array of live announcements, including stops in Ibiza, Las Vegas, New York, Munich, and Paris. It also sets the stage for further installments in Verve’s Nina Simone reinterpretation series, with additional contributions from Mochakk, DESIREE, Austin Millz, dublon, Supershy, Antdot and more.
