Can you believe Nightsteppaz has not only got into the groove, he's got Bushwacka! on the remix - that's worth another '!' 



After Franck Roger's 'Can U Believe' EP (see review HERE) turned up on Nightsteppaz' own 'Want Me' with a remix (see review HERE), speculation was rife as to who would be next on the label's hit list.

Well, I didn't think it would be the Bushwacka! half of the famed Layo & Bushwacka combo that ruled the decks at the (in)famous London club, The End that started in the mid 90s in central London and as a duo had countless inclusions on compilations both as artists and DJs.  

The original version is very late-night groove only for Bushwacka! to take us back to the dayz of the air-raid siren as "the drums and bass are more bubbly and bouncy to get the floor popping" - it really feels like it's primordial acid rave house.  It might be underground but it's great.


I remember when The End ended as I used to pass through the Midtown area London at that time.  It was an interesting time for London clubland as the 'CBD' of of night time clubbing moved from the bright lights to the grubby other side of the Euston Road in the planning  blighted area that became home of the new hot clubs The Cross, Bagleys and Egg. 


Thankfully, there's other places now that you can be 'Getting Into The Groove' and Vibe Me To The Moon is your place to start.

Can you believe Franck Roger is back with Vibe Me To The Moon with a remix of 'Want Me' by the Nightsteppaz? 



After Franck Roger's 'Can U Believe' EP (see review HERE) on his Vibe Me To The Moon debut so it's no huge surprise he's back with U.S. label that was started up in 2017 by DJ Nightsteppaz. 

The title track 'Want Me' does extactly what it says on the tin, with 'Lonnie Liston Smith' space synths vs. 80s deep space house with big vocals that resonate from New York, Chicago and San Francisco to the beaches of the Balearics.  

I know what your thinking - is there a dub version?  You're right, there's the Frank Roger remix version and the Franck Roger Dub!  And a remix in Mr. Rogers hands means 'Want Me' becomes and almost different animal, staying on the Med coast with Speedo shaped electric guitar for big hair funky-riffs.

All three versions are perfect for any club but if you need a winner for the weekend, this is it.
