TobyMac Attack Rolls Into Fall 2005 With Remix Album

Not one to slow down, Forefront recording artist TobyMac will release a brand new remix project, Renovating Diverse City, on August 30, 2005.

At the low, permanent price of $9.99, and the first run in digipak form, the album is full of remixes from the best-selling, Grammy-nominated and Dove-Award winning Welcome to Diverse City project.

In between the Worldwide Diverse City tour and current summer tour dates, TobyMac hooked up with some of the best remixers around to cut new versions of tracks including the No. 1 hit singles "Slam," "Gone," and "Atmosphere." The project features the remix and production talents of Matt Bronleewe (Natalie Imbruglia, Michael W. Smith), Tedd T.(Stacie Orrico, Mute Math), Max Hsu (Superchic[k]), Diverse City band leader and keyboardist Dave Wyatt, Chris Stevens (Shawn McDonald, TobyMac's WTDC), and Double Dutch (zoegirl). (Note: Full track listing below).

Sure to light a fire at radio once again, Forefront plans to release the first remix single, "Burn For You," to Christian CHR and Rock radio on July 1st.

On a side note, the original "Diverse City" track will be included on Campus Crusade's 2005 Freshman Survival Kit. Approximately 90,000 CDs will be manufactured and distributed this fall to colleges and universities across the U.S. Included on the disc will be a link to a website which will feature artist videos and more.

This week, Welcome to Diverse City surpassed the 285,000 units sold mark.
