Track of the Day: Naughty by Nature - Jamboree (Casual Connection Rework)
Naughty by Nature - Jamboree (Casual Connection Rework)
Casual Connection's rework of this '99 classic is timely with a refreshingly simple result; a dancefloor ready, sure-to-be, crowd favorite. For DJs, we often we hear tracks that we'd love to play out but they're just not 'friendly' to our sets or environment. As a result we tend to do edits, reworks and remixes. Casual Connections approach is straightforward, clean up the vocals, add some life to those beautiful horn samples, and give those kicks some TLC. The vocal cuts are on point, there's a easy flowing rhythm, and stays true to the original's vibe. IF you're ever in a situation where you're performing open format or Top 40's challenge yourself to find producers that have put out proper reworks and remixes of your high school playlist favorites without sacrificing too much of your dignity. I highly recommend you start with Casual Conenction's entire discography.The original Naughty by Nature song actually borrowed it's horn groove from a legendary classc by Benny Golson called 'I'm always dancing to the music':Casual Connection aka Lukasz Ru-Kasu hails from Perth, Australia and as we mentioned earlier an excellent library of remixes and edits at your disposal. The producer has clearly mastered the art of remixing and to that extent recently joined forces with his compatriot Ross Deschamp (mostly know for his Dnb productions) to form Cup and String that will focus predominatly on orignals withing the House, Garage and Nu-Disco genres.Their latest release 'Don't Go' is a great example of the fusion of sounds the duo are going for:In honor of #TBT we decided to visit this awesome rework by Casual Connection and for good measure and nostalgic effect we've got the music video from the original track by Naughty by Nature below:If you're fully into the 90s mood then check out more reworks and remixes by Casual Connection below:Check this and other tracks out from our latest guest mix courtesy of Colour Vision:Enjoy,MR PUZL
