Wongo has just unleashed a new track called ‘Take Me to the Rave’, a nostalgic groove that combines UK techno elements and whacky samples to create an upbeat dance floor banger.
The buzzing synths, bouncing bass line and off-beat are a lot of fun, and the laid-back vocals provided by Twin Turbo really add to the overall vibe of the track, which Wongo says is “a paper mache of good energy” inspired by the masters of electronic dance, Basement Jaxx.
“Basement Jaxx were such a huge part of my childhood. They were the ‘band’ I was into before I learned what electronic music meant. The thing that really made me fall in love with them is their use of wacky samples that maybe shouldn’t go together, mixed with great arrangements, funny concepts and mixing of live and electronic sounds.” – Wongo
