Following his smash hit cover of “Let's Hear It For The Boy,” which debuted on Hollywood Hamilton's RT30 show, garnered 150,000+ streams and 200+ radio station plays worldwide, and received 2M+ Tik Tok plays, New York-based veteran DJ Martial Simon unveils his next energetic cover of “You Keep Me Hanging On”.
The summertime anthem starts off with female vocals as the song kicks into gear with a staccato, yet ethereal rhythm that’s guided by energizing kicks. As robotic male vocals kick in, the tune receives its Martial Simon touch with electro-pop synths that breathe new life into the original and achieve bringing the tune into the modern music landscape.
“I always loved both versions of this song, the original by the Supremes and the 80's remake by Kim Wilde. Both were number 1 Billboard hits! I decided to cover it with a female and male vocal, and ended up making an electro-dance duet.” – Martial Simon
