Over the past few months I've finally been able to do some Madonna themed cakes for my boyfriend and friends.

First was my boyfriend's Grad School Graduation cake that was RIT/Lament/LAP themed---

Next was my friend Nick's WHO'S THAT GIRL TOUR Birthday cake---

R E T R O F I T- THE BREAK DOWN.

LUKESAVANT

Here is an UPDATED synopsis of the tracks:

Hung Up-Lukesavant Anthem Mix
This is the lead off dance track, a summer anthem, that is all about shaking your ass off, whether in a club or outside at a T-dance.  This hard hitting remix rivals any circuit party track or club mix.  I tried to make Madonna's vocals as crisp and clear in this mix.  This one will probably be on repeat on your mp3 player.

Vogue-Lukesavant You've Got To Mix--Description of Production-Surprise

Music-Lukesavant Acid Interlude

Candy Shop-Lukesavant New Flavor Mix
A taste of something new, still with a Hip Hop flavor.  This track has a rewitten melody, with the driving force of Madonna's vocals commanding you " Get up out of your seat, Come on up to the dancefloor!"

 

Pretender-Lukesavant I'm Not Blind Mix
I love the original version of this song.  Albeit, this is not the original, you do get a throw back feel as though this is an updated 80's dance track with heavy synths. 

Give It 2 Me-Lukesavant On And On Mix-

A fun, light, almost disco feel, very airy

 

This Used To Be My Playground-Lukesavant Has To End Interlude

 

Future Lovers- Lukesavant Mission Style Mix

This track was released previously this year, with its driving piano and rock guitar, this dance track emotes a cross breed of tribal and rock influences.

Material Girl-Lukesavant 4 Million Dollar Mix

The sleeper hit of this compilation, this version takes us away from the kitchy original blended from the tribal sound of Future Lovers just before it, much more of an updated 2010 melody.  Interwoven with subtle vocals of 4 Minutes. 

 

La Isla Bonita-Lukesavant Te Amo Mix
A teaser sample of this mix was made available about 45 days ago.  And it was just that, a teaser, this mix is a new dance track with limited vocals, but with a serious driving production.  Another cross breed of heavy rising synths, with a solid stable base, sprinkled with complimentary piano liques having you wishing you were in San Pedro (where ever that is)

Deeper-Lukesavant Falling In Love Interlude

Time Stood Still-Lukesavant Might Have Been Mix
The first ballad of the project, but definitely with an R&B feel, doesn't sound anything like the original song.  Amazing steady beat and solid slow base cradle the vocals perfectly.

Like An Angel-Lukesavant Heaven Sent Mix
Completely redesigned concept of the Abba song, Like An Angel Passing Through My Mind, This track is a midtempo groove with Madonna saying "Dying embers warm my face, Like an Angel"

Cherish-Lukesavant Summer Mix--Description of Production-Surprise

Nothing Really Matters-Lukesavant New Beginnings Mix
This track was also release previously but still makes this compilation.  The main groove is a sample taken from Empire Under The Sun's We Are The People.  Nicely adapted into a great Madonna remix

Nobody Knows Me-Lukesavant Improve My Life Interlude

 

Physical Attraction-Lukesavant 1 night Mix
This midtempo groove is an amazing update to the original, with elements of the original brought in the chorus, the new rhythm piano and driving new chorus synths refresh this oldie but goodie.

I Want You-Lukesavant Cherish 4 Life Mix
Just released last month, this dance track keeps the emotions high and is a straight forward take vocally with a newly offered melody.

Bad Girl-Lukesavant Devil Inside Mix
blended continuosly from the previous track, I Want You, this track is another complete new creation starting you on an etheral journey for about a minute and a half, then taking you into the haunting ballad infused with sublte elements of Devil Wouldn't Recogize You.  This track is infectous.  Also is the perfect way to end the entire project.

RETROFIT by LUKESAVANT

LUKESAVANT

Yesterday I announced the upcoming release of my latest Madonna remix project called RETROFIT.  I have to say, I'm quite excited about this one.  I'm finalizing my new Hung Up remix today.  The thought occurred to me that I may not have enough time to complete all the tracks by the release date, M's birthday, but I think I will.

 

So far the final confirmed tracks are:

(In no particular order yet...)

Hung Up

Pretender

Future Lovers

Candy Shop

Bad Girl

Material Girl

I Want You

La Isla Bonita

Time Stood Still

Like An Angel

Nothing Really Matters

 

I am 100% sure, when you hear Bad Girl, all of you will flip over in your chair.  It isn't a dance track, its definitely a cross between a ballad and a mid-tempo groove.  Hung Up is new and fresh, a perfect way to end the summer.  Material Girl is a track I did for a friend of mine that is currently being played on Masterbeat.com and soon to be iTunes.  This go around, I wanted to step up my game a bit and really deliver.  More songs may be included in this release... depends on time.

ABBIE CORNISH, ANDREA RISEBOROUGH, JAMES D’ARCY OSCAR ISAAC, RICHARD COYLE, JAMES FOX AND LAURENCE FOX JOIN "W.E"
Madonna's Directorial Feature Debut to start Principal Photography on 5th July
Based on an original screenplay, "W.E," a film written by Madonna and Alek Keshishian is set to begin shooting this summer in Europe (UK and France) and the US.
"W.E" tells two parallel love stories separated by more than six decades. Acclaimed actress Abbie Cornish (Sucker Punch, Bright Star, Elizabeth: The Golden Age) has been cast in the role of Wally Winthrop – a young married New Yorker in 1998 who is obsessed with what she perceives as the ultimate romantic love story, King Edward VIII's abdication for his love of Wallis Simpson. Andrea Riseborough has been cast in the role of Wallis Simpson. Riseborough is best known for her outstanding Bafta Nominated performance of Margaret Thatcher in the acclaimed BBC drama "The Long Walk to Finchley" and will soon be seen in Brighton Rock. British star James D'Arcy (Master and Commander, Secret Diary of a Call Girl) will play the part of Edward VIII. Wally Winthrop's Russian love interest Evgeni will be played by rising star Oscar Isaac (Robin Hood, Sucker Punch) and her husband William will be played by Richard Coyle (Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time). Art imitates life as the revered British acting dynasty provides father and son, James Fox (Sherlock Holmes, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Bafta nominated A Passage to India, Bafta winner The Servant) and Laurence Fox (Elizabeth: The Golden Age, Becoming Jane) in the roles of King George V and his son, Bertie.
1936 England - Wallis Simpson, an American woman, captured the heart of King Edward VIII. Already divorced and married to her second husband when she met Edward, then the Prince of Wales in London, the two fell in love. However, once crowned, Edward was told by the Church and the Prime Minister that he could not marry Wallis and remain King... He abdicated, giving up the throne to be with the woman he loved. Once married and known as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, they lived out what many considered to be the romance of the century.
1998 N.Y - Wally Winthrop has a troubled past and moves to New York from the South to work in Sotheby's Estate department. She gives up her job to marry a successful psychiatrist but the marriage is unhappy and Wally finds herself bored, frustrated and often alone. She seeks refuge in her obsession with what she believes to be the ultimate romantic love story, King Edward VIII ‘s abdication for his love of Wallis Simpson. When Wally discovers that there is going to be an auction of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor's Estate at Sotheby's, she takes the opportunity to return to her old hunting ground to try to understand the nature of the great love affair through the artifacts that once belonged to the couple. While at Sotheby's, Wally meets Evgeni, a Russian security guard, with a mysterious past. As she immerses herself deeper into the love story of Wallis and Edward, while spending more time away from her marriage, she finds herself falling in love.
We travel back and forth in time with Wally and Wallis, two fragile but determined women whose lives become inextricably linked. However, as the story unravels it becomes apparent that Wallis Simpson’s life was not as perfect as Wally had thought.
The film will be produced by Colin Vaines (producer Coriolanus, exec producer London Boulevard, The Gangs of New York and The Young Victoria) with Executive Producers Kris Thykier (producer The Debt, Kick-Ass, Harry Brown, exec producer Stardust) and Nigel Wooll (exec producer Miss Potter, co-producer GI Jane, White Squall). The production team include Production Designer Martin Childs (Oscar Winner Shakespeare in Love, Oscar Nominated Quills, The Boy in Striped Pyjamas), Director of Photography, Hagen Bogdanski (The Lives of Others, The Young Victoria), Costume Designer, Arianne Phillips (Oscar Nominated Walk the Line, Bafta Nominated A Single Man) and Hair and Make Up Designer - Jenny Shircore (Oscar Winner Elizabeth, Bafta Winner and Oscar Nominated The Young Victoria).

Madonna casts Natalie Dormer to portray the 'game-playing' Queen Mother

Posted by: Veijo in MyBlog

Tagged in: Madonna

THE TUDORS - Season 2Much missed since her death in 2002, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother is to be subjected to a radical new portrayal by Madonna. Mandrake can disclose that the American singer has cast an actress who appeared naked as Anne Boleyn in the television series The Tudors to perform the role of Queen Elizabeth in a film that she is making about the Edward VIII abdication crisis.

"This country tends to remember the Queen Mother as a rather wrinkly 97 year-old, but I am playing her when she was quite an enchanting, engaging twenty and thirtysomething," Natalie Dormer told me. "She was quite a savage and savvy game player-

The "Queen of Pop" is understood to be portraying Queen Elizabeth as a highly negative influence in W.E., which is sympathetic to Wallis Simpson, the twice-divorced American socialite, who caused a constitutional dilemma when the king declared his desire to marry her.

Dormer, who was speaking at a party to mark the 100th anniversary of Elizabeth Arden, the cosmetics firm patronised by Queen Elizabeth, said: "She never really spoke in public – she left it up to her husband, the king, and, therefore, even if she was a dominant force in the marriage, and a rock and forward thinker, she always let the king take the lead. She never took any credit for it."

Madonna has long been fascinated by the 1936 crisis, which was resolved by Edward's abdication and his succession by his brother, George VI, who was the present Queen's father. Edward was given the title the Duke of Windsor and he married Simpson.

In May, the singer said: "People have accused Wallis of all kinds of things. They've said that she put a spell on Edward. They've said that she was a hermaphrodite and that he was gay. They've said they were Nazi sympathisers. It's just the usual lynch-mob mentality that descends upon somebody who has something that lots of other people don't have."

Mandrake reported in March that Madonna would ask the Queen for filming on W.E. to be allowed in royal palaces.

Dormer, 28, whose ancestor is Jane Dormer, a lady in waiting to Queen Mary, is used to controversy after starring in The Tudors, which was criticised for its historical inaccuracies.

Madonna's film has already undergone several changes. The latest is that Margo Stilley, who appeared in the sexually explicit film 9 Songs, has left. "I had the role, but we had artistic differences," said the American actress.

Stilley added of Madonna: "She is really something. I wish the cast luck because they are all really talented."
