Covering a song as beloved as The Sundays’ “Here’s Where The Story Ends” is a tall order. 808 BEACH and Belle Humble pull it off by leaning into the melody instead of trying to outrun it, dropping the 1990 classic into a polished, modern house frame with a full deluxe remix package in tow.
808 BEACH is the New York duo of John “J-C” Carr and Bill Coleman, two veterans with remix and writing credits running from Deee-Lite and Ultra Naté to Lizzo and Beyoncé. Belle Humble brings her own resume to the table: a multi-platinum songwriter behind Flux Pavilion’s “Cracks” and a long list of cross-genre work with Paloma Faith, Dub Pistols, and Tom Swoon. With 808 BEACH, the groove is a given. With Belle, the vocal lands.
The lead mix keeps the bones of the original in place. Humble’s voice sits clean and bright over Carr and Coleman’s production, expanding the song’s emotional reach without rewriting it.
