    NEW YORK, NY, December 13, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Holmeswood releases "James Dean (Rebel Remix)"; an electronic dance reimagining of his song "James Dean" which was featured on his successful 2015 self-titled album "Holmeswood". Originally, James Dean highlighted an electro-pop/rock sensibility. The "James Dean (Rebel Remix)" is a high energy EDM track infused with James Dean's signature conga drums, flute and cinematic influences.

The "James Dean (Rebel Remix)" is in tribute to James Dean and his film Rebel Without A Cause; it is the second in a series of three James Dean film title inspired remixes. It follows his acoustic jazz remix "James Dean (Eden Remix) in tribute to East Of Eden. The next remix to be released is Holmeswood's dubstep remix tribute to Giant entitled "James Dean (Giant Remix)" due for release on December 29th. The original recording of James Dean was co-written and recorded with NYC based British music producer Jamie Muffett. The James Dean (Rebel Remix) was re-arranged and produced by Argentinian pianist / composer / producer Dario Boente (Antonio Sanchez, Ronny Jordan, Fernando Otero, Joshua Thompson, Pablo Aslan, Mark Whitfield and others) using the sounds of flute, piano and conga drums in tandem with a sonic powerhouse of electronic dance elements; and co-produced by Eric Jayk (Sandra Bernhard's Rock Band and her off-Broadway Show, "Everything Bad, & Beautiful", Wildstreet, Astra The 22s, and others).
