nice to see Becky nabbing another week in the top 40 before her inevitable descent to ACR next week, now let's hope Disconnect is a bigger hit soon enough.

 

this Bou song is very mid, we didn't need yet another Children sample too

Biography

 

Afrorave prodigy, Rema was introduced to the world in March 2019, with the release of his self-titled debut EP, and the global hits “Corny”, “Dumebi” and “Iron Man” which was featured on Barack Obama’s Summer Playlist. His debut EP will be remembered for defining a new era for African pop. He’s released two more projects in the same year of his unveil. Together, the projects have earned Rema multiple No. 1 singles and over 200 million combined streams worldwide. Rema’s at the forefront of a generation of hitmakers taking African music around the world. The 23-year-old’s ascent to global recognition has inspired multiple mentions in global publications and platforms, including cover stories in Fader & Dazed, and features in Pitchfork and Rolling Stone which listed “Iron Man” among its best 50 songs of 2019. Building on a stellar debut year, Rema continued his global mission in 2020 with the double release of the Rvssian-assisted “Beamer (Bad Boys)” and “Rainbow”, and chart-topping “Ginger Me” and “Woman”. In 2021, Rema served up ‘Soundgasm’ as a taste of the new genre he’d pioneered, earned him over a 100 million streams on all platforms. With the release of his debut Album, Rave and Roses in 2022, followed by a 14 cities sold out tour of the United States and a collaboration with Selena Gomez on his global hit, Calm Down, Rema’s music continues its stranglehold on streaming charts, and the singer's push for global stardom is stronger than it's ever been. - Spotify

Unsurprisingly Blue (Da Ba Dee) has also been used yet again. For some horrendous hip hop song I can't remember the name of.

Is it 'Endless Fashion' by Lil Uzi Vert & Nicki Minaj? That usage of the sample is truly horrendous

Edited by Y'all Starlight

The best Robert Miles sample was by Angel City

out of the chart hits that sampled Children, that seems fair. although I do quite enjoy React

 

I did really enjoy the Tinlicker remix of Children from a few years ago however, they did a great job of modernising it without putting any vocal on top.

Yep that's the one.

 

Is there like some industry challenge to do the worst thing possible with a select list of samples?

ANOTR

The art of blending, mixing, compiling and making music into something you’ve never heard before whilst looking for new ways to approach house music. That’s what ANOTR stands for. Characterised by their hypnotic, energetic and slick beats with influences from disco, soul, funk, jazz and every thing in between, their music is a blend between the old and the new, whilst finding the sweet spot between what is made for clubs and what is made for live performances. The Amsterdam - based pair believe that the way to move forward is to follow what is right for you as an artist, instead of following what is right in public opinion. Expect the unexpected. Feel inspired by what you already know about music but be open to learn even more. ANOTR will guide you t h rough their way of thinking, interpreting mu sic and their way of challenging you to hear what else is possible. Act before you think, forget the rules, and let us take you on our journey into sounds selected, curated and created by ANOTR. - RA

 

Abel Balder

After amassing 250 million streams with his instrumental beats on Spotify, Amsterdam born and raised Abel Balder took on a new challenge when underground house duo ANOTR asked him to contribute his signature guitar sound to their debut album ‘The Reset’. Over time the sessions took a different turn when Abel started to sing as well and the enthusiasm Jesse and Oz showed him about his vocal skills, gave the young singer the push he needed to sing on a record for the first time, leading to the creation of Relax My Eyes, Vertigo and Your Mind. The love they all received when ANOTR played the tracks in their DJ sets, made Abel aware that he could move people with his voice and slowly he started to realise singing was his calling all along. Using songwriting as a tool to integrate emotions, heal subconscious wounds and harmonise life’s contrasting energies, Abel’s impulsive nature and love for a wide range of genres inspire an eclectic and recognisable yet refreshing sound. - Spotify

that not being a top 40 hit is something we can all be thankful for (although in an ideal world Just Wanna Rock wouldn't have got there either)

 

yay for ANOTR finally making the top 40, an actual good dance entry to follow Bou, its climb had been painfully slow so I'd worried it'd stall out at 41.
