Working with producers Fatal Art Syndicate, Cazwell, and Larry Tee, she has compiled a remix EP as a teaser for her upcoming artist album. Warning: the electro is as sexy and spicy as she is.

Annie Interview
"Chewing Gum" was my introduction to Annie - a song so catchy and sweet that it stuck in my head after the first time I saw the video. Her website anniemusic.co.uk, introduced me to "Heartbeat" and jogged my head, reminded me about the Madonna sampling "Greatest Hit," the disco confection I played a few years ago. Listening to her debut CD Anniemal, I hear something different, a brilliant singer/songwriter who loves electronic music and is not afraid the blend the pop and the underground.
