Muttonheads

Remixer

Muttonheads is the project of French DJ, composer and producer Jérôme Tissot, born on 3 May 1976 in Chambéry and raised in Saint-Étienne-de-Cuines, in the French Alps (Savoie). Active since 1996, he carries on the legacy of French Touch, the melodic, filtered French house sound that conquered clubs worldwide.

A French Touch craftsman

From Savoie to club stages, Muttonheads has spent more than twenty-five years shaping a sound where disco warmth meets house energy. A prolific producer, he releases his music on labels including Serial Records and has remixed many other artists, all listed on his official website, muttonheads.com.

The “Give Love” remix

Give Love cover, Alexandre Auger feat. Akil Wingate, remixed by Muttonheads

In 2007, Muttonheads delivered the official remix of “Give Love”, Alexandre Auger’s track sung by Akil Wingate. His 7:46 version turns the song into a true club piece: a gradual build, a driving groove and Akil’s voice showcased every time the chorus returns. This “Muttonheads Remix”, also released as a Long Edit, was picked up by several dance compilations and is one of the remixes the artist highlights in his own discography.

With Electromix Records

This collaboration reflects Electromix Records’ openness to producers from the French house scene. It gave “Give Love” a second life on the dancefloor and remains one of the most memorable versions in the catalogue.
