You'll recall RAH & The Ruffcats on Sonar Kollektiv from a couple of years ago; well they've removed RAH and got Doug Shorts, who luckily ain't worried about a thing at all on this new single, 'I Ain't Worried' that includes an Erobique Remix!



RAH & The Ruffcats' 'Wake Up' got the Yoruba Soul mixes treatment (see review HEREand the album, 'Orile To Berlin' (see review HERE) really showcased the 'supergroup backing band', The Ruffcats (from Berlin) and now they front the mighty fine soulful voice of Doug Shorts.

In that soulfully downtempo of a Jeb Loy Nichols (on Timmion - see HERE) at one extreme, with the original version in it's 60s/70s vibe, or at the other, a Jono McCleery album 'Reconcile' (see review HERE) where the remix takes it into a Northern Soul Modern Room / downtempo soul. 

You can see why there's already a high demand for the old skool 7" vinyl as it's aimed squarely at soul lovers, DJs, and collectors alike: a record that feels just as at home in a crate next to vintage originals as it does in a contemporary DJ set.
