BACARDI BEAT
UPIATE
Robert McLemon irom Central FM reviews this weeks BACARDI Beat dance Chart.
With dance music dominating the Scottish dance iloors, house, rave and garage teature strongly in the current BACARDI Beat Dance Chart.
At No 18 Swiss DJ DJaimin has ambitions of turning the banking capital of the world into the next House haven - ‘Give You’ is his pulsating debut single, which exploded into the dance chart. Here’s looking lorward to more from the land at the cuckoo clock.
Away irom the charts, listen out for the excellent Black Science Orchestra’s ‘Where Were You?’, another crunchier deep house track
from the Fire Island label. The 908 soul revival is in top gear and believe it or not The Christians have recorded a moody and bouncy version of Gil Scott-Heron’s ‘The Bottle’ which deserves to be a dance hit tor cheek alone.
Garage tracks in this week’s chart include Club Z’s ‘I Wanna Be Someone’ at No 19. Remixed by Tony Humphries, it’s a lunky track with a smooth vocal helping cool down a solid beat.
Dina Carroll follows up ‘Ain’t No Man with a Clivilles and Cole-produced new single called ‘A Special Kind Of Love’ — commercial maybe, but a powerlul vocal with sweeping beats makes it a club winner.
“Wag Ya Tail’ by Xpand Ya Mind may have a problem understanding the art of spelling, but this classy, lunky disco-style (with vocals irom Lonnie Liston) is seriously essential.
Our top spot this week is dominated by Sunscreem's ‘Pertect Motion’ — check out the Carl Cox and Dave Valentine mix.
Join me on Central PM this Saturday from 5.30-7pm lor the BACARDI Beat Dance chart countdown and in the words of Paul Welch - Respect.
