In February 2009, Venus & Mars Music released promotional singles of "When It's Alright" in the United Kingdom. [2] While it was a pop-soul track in its original form, "When It's Alright" had received remix treatment by Kinky Roland, Per Qx and Kid Massive, and was serviced to club DJs. [2] The remixes transformed the song into a deep house club track. [2] While "When It's Alright" hadn't quite broken into the mainstream, it was gaining positive reviews. [2] Eventually, a German dance label Kosmo Records approached Venus & Mars Music and signed a worldwide license deal for the track.
