Lucky 7 Vs Scot Project - U
White Label
Catalogue Number: LUCKY002
Well you might have heard of Lucky 7 from their previous cheeky remix of
Motorcycle - As The Rush Comes, which I have to say I didn't really rate as it
didn't seem to be much more than the original G&D mix with a break under it. Now
they've gone and done the same with one of my favourite tunes of all time, the one
and only Scot Project - U (I Got A Feeling). So hows it sound??
Well it starts with a nice funky breakbeat which is soon joined by extra
layers of hi-hats and percussion as you would expect. Fx drop into the background
along then the famous acidy riff 'wow wow' drops in over the back and the hairs
stand up on my neck - wicked. The synths layer over the top with the whole riff
from the original breakdown to be joined by layers of hoover type synths as the tune
builds towards the break. A dark vocal snippet drifts over the synths as the synths
filter and the break kicks back in - class.
In summary, this probably isn't going to please the purist breaks or hard
house fans to see a classic anthem bootlegged in this way. But me, I absolutely
love the original tune and I love this too. Not only that but it's also at a nice
bpm (140 ish) to be mixed beautifully in the middle of a trance set to surprise the
crowd. I suggest putting aside your doubts and checking it out - you might just like it.
