This is a very good funky house tune, this song is definitely influenced by Basement Jaxx as they said in the interview.

Not sure if I like the lyrics much but the instrumental is great.

Sounds very typical 'Radio 1 Dance' fodder, I guess with enough listens it could grow

Why can't they playlist more lively stuff like this in the daytime rather than numerous chilled tropical house/ future bass dance songs with pitched vocals in them?

Actually it sounds very old school; can definitely hear a bit of jungle boogie in there... I did hear it on Radio 1, but nothing wrong with that. Unless you're a snob that is.

Can't really hear any jungle in it, it's mostly inspired by Basement Jaxx's style as they said in the interview.

Dance Anthems clearly like it, sadly though it definitely won't be added to the daytime playlist as it isn't tropical house, minimal house or future bass and doesn't have pitched vocals!

This really should have been added to radio 1's daytime playlist to have given it a chance of being a hit since they were such massive fans of it on the dance shows.

And it's been on their playlist for 4 weeks now!

I have to admit it's not really doing much for me, but it's nice to see a song of this caliber getting some attention.
