Serial hit recyclers Booty Luv are back next week with their third single, a cover of Lucy Pearl’s Don’t Mess With My Man.
It isn’t a complicated formula - take a bunch of old-but-good dance tunes and give them a slick and sophisticated makeover. What Booty Luv do best is produce already memorable dance tracks with a contemporary twist.
Overkill is the lead single from Kosheen’s third album, Damage.
Kosheen are another of those bands I’ve been vaguely aware of in the past, but rashly written off. The reason I’m saying that is because Overkill is actually quite a good song.
I did a bit of poking around for information about the band and the main thing I discovered is that the singer, Sian Evans draws numerous comparisons with Roisin Murphy.
In this one, Timbaland is giving a bit of a leg up to one of the singers on his Mosley Music record label, Keri Hilson. Can’t blame the guy either, if the rumors that he’s retiring are true, he’s going to want to push his artists pretty hard to keep the dough rolling in.
The Way I Are just screams out Timbaland: you can hear that strong synth running through the track alongside throbbing beats and bass. The addition of Hilson on vocals is a departure from Ms Furtado, and you come away with the feeling that either singer could have delivered the goods on this track.
It would be easy to write this off as one of those repetitive old 90’s dance tracks that has an unknown female singer doing vocals. And in that respect, unless you’re familiar with no-surnamed Swedish singer/songwriter Robyn, this is another dollop of faceless pop.
I finally caught the video for Eric Prydz’s version of Another Brick In The Wall on TMF this evening. Was never a big fan of the original song, but this remix injects some energy into it.
Proper Education is a bit shorter than I remember Another Brick In The Wall being, but it weaves in the original Pink Floyd vocal along with (I think) the original bassline and guitar tracks. Not normally my thing, but this update may actually be better than the original!
