It’s been a while since I’ve listened to MYPD. Yes, I sort of missed ‘Ain’t That Enough’ and I did love ‘You’re Not Alone’ that featured a knockout Micha Moor remix, but their (His or Her) new release Mundo Samba sees a glorious early coming of summer house goodness.
The original mix, is a hard, jumpy affair that mimics the likes of Olav Basoski’s ‘Waterman’ which, was a summer belter back in the days of 2004. That’s not to say it’s a blatant rip-off, it’s far from, the chorus compliments the bass and kicks extremely well, making it an instantly appealing track upon the first listen. It’s status as a summer track is confirmed with the use of some killer bongo breakdowns mid-track before it smashes out with the groovy bass and 4/4 beat.
R.I.O join the groove with a similar sounding remix that features some sweeping electro bass, that’s guaranteed to knock you off your feet. The most interesting thing about R.I.O’s remix is that it’s got a similar sound to the original, but the sweeping bass and vocals keep this one as a nice more electro heavy deviation from the original.
However, the electro seems to get heavier when Schwarzkopf & Schrder drop an absolutely grinding electro rework of MYPD’s original. The best of the package, it works with a catchy (albeit slightly overused) electro main synth. Again, MYPD’s vocal incorporation on the original track works well as a track filler through the package and it’s no different with this mix. This one has a massive sound, it’s got meaty kicks, some killer vocals and wicked electro bass.
This one is a fantastic, fun, and powerful sounding release from MYPD and a wonderful taste of what we might be expecting to hear in Summer 08′ (In Australia, of course! Those of you in Winter should just pretend, or come down.)
