The weekly froth! A weekly take on six tracks, most of which have recently popped up somewhere in the blogosphere. Bit of a mixed bag with a slight leaning towards house, disco, and remixes, but generally just anything that for some reason tickled the writer’s fancy.
Track of the week: ‘Not In Love Anymore’ by Late Nite Tuff Guy
This is a Michael McDonald song called ‘I Keep Forgetting’, and you might’ve heard that one before. This is on a new release by Late Nite Tuff Guy, who does these amazing edits of all those disco classics, and this one ranks right up there. It’s a bit beefed up, it is nice and clean and slick, but it also is Michael friggin’ McDonald. And he gives McDonald plenty of room here. Especially at 3:10, that’s brilliant, the song just completely opens up. Honestly, I’ve played this for about 24 hours straight. Those vocals, the room they get, but still as a rework it is smooth and it flows very well. It is, on all accounts, a killer song, and you just have to play this at full blast. I mean, when Michael McDonald sings, well, just about everything in this rework, it is magnificent. It certainly packs the punch. It is that I have a column to write, otherwise I would still be listening to this. I’m like that daft kid who doesn’t move past that fish in that aquarium sometimes, just googling at it.
