An absolutely monstrous remix by Johnny D on this new cut from Ralph Lawson and his team. It’s everything you want from one of his remixes, only more so – a big, looping house groove with chunky percussive loops, a galloping rhythm, and simple but oh-so-effective bass. The snide-sounding vocal recalls a sassier Dirty Vegas, and works perfectly with his chugging monster of a backing track. Peak time carnage. The Dub gives a techier, trippier workout for use elsewhere.
 
Huge. Use carefully and sparingly, or else it’ll be this year’s Orbitalife. 1 point deducted for it being a fair bit too long and for Johnny once again not really taking it anywhere. That aside, silly amounts of fun.
