ABKCO Records premieres a sensational Soulwax remixed
single of The Rolling Stones classic “You Can’t Always
Get What You Want,” featured in Columbia Pictures’ 21,
which stars Jim Sturgess and Kate Bosworth, with
Laurence Fishburne and Kevin Spacey. The film will be
released in theaters nationwide on March 28, 2008. 

ABKCO Records will release the track exclusively
through iTunes for a one week period starting February
19th. At the same time, the song will be available
through all mobile providers as a downloadable
mastertone as well as a video ringer, using footage
from the film. 

“You Can’t Always Get What You Want” was remixed
specifically for the film by Soulwax, brothers David
and Stephen Dewaele, who have blazed a trail in the
dance/electronica and pop universes. The track was
remixed under ABKCO’s guidance in Soulwax’s studio in
Ghent, Belgium. 

Soulwax are best known for their influential
contributions to the pop genre under the names Flying
Dewaele Brothers and 2 Many DJ’s, as well as their
landmark record “As Heard on Radio Soulwax Pt 2.” The
brothers have also released several major albums under
the Soulwax name; their 2004 album “Any Minute Now”
yielded three hit singles. The duo has produced a
number of successful remixes with artists as diverse
as LCD Soundsystem, Robbie Williams, Gorillaz, Daft
Punk, and Einstürzende Neubauten. 

“You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” long a staple in
The Rolling Stones’ live repertoire, is noteworthy for
the participation of the London Bach Choir in the
sessions that took place over two days in November
1968. The song was included in the band’s “Let It
Bleed” album, released in 1969. 

Jody Klein, ABKCO’s President, commented, “We are very
excited to present our music in innovative ways to new
generations of fans. The Soulwax single follows on
from our successful release of The Darjeeling Limited
soundtrack and the iTunes ‘track packs’ release of the
music from the Showtime series, Californication.” He
added, “The Soulwax remix is a perfect fit for the
film 21 and we are confident that Stones fans will be
delighted with this new interpretation of “You Can’t
Always Get What You Want”. Of course, the original
recording remains a cornerstone of the band’s classic
catalogue.” 

Columbia Pictures' action/adventure 21 is inspired by
the true story of the very brightest young minds in
the country – and how they took Vegas for millions.
Ben Campbell (Jim Sturgess) is a shy, brilliant M.I.T.
student who – needing to pay school tuition – finds
the answers in the cards. He is recruited to join a
group of the school’s most gifted students that heads
to Vegas every weekend armed with fake identities and
the know-how to turn the odds at blackjack in their
favor. With unorthodox math professor and stats genius
Micky Rosa (Kevin Spacey) leading the way, they’ve
cracked the code. By counting cards and employing an
intricate system of signals, the team can beat the
casinos big time. Seduced by the money, the Vegas
lifestyle, and by his smart and sexy teammate, Jill
Taylor (Kate Bosworth), Ben begins to push the limits.
Though counting cards isn’t illegal, the stakes are
high, and the challenge becomes not only keeping the
numbers straight, but staying one step ahead of the
casinos’ menacing enforcer: Cole Williams (Laurence
Fishburne). The film is directed by Robert Luketic.
The screenplay is by Peter Steinfeld and Allan Loeb,
based on the book Bringing Down the House by Ben
Mezrich. The film is produced by Dana Brunetti, Kevin
Spacey, and Michael De Luca.
