TRACK: Make That Booty Clap (Remixes) out on dirtybird Records May 6

Kill Frenzy’s storming debut on dirtybird, the addictive, juke charged brute with its ingenious hip hop breakdown, is back for re-release with a slew of remixes from some choice label affiliates. Not content with the original’s genre-traversing legacy (including plays from Soul Clap to Skrillex and pretty much everyone in between), Belgium’s booty obsessed Kill Frenzy has rallied the likes of The Martin Brothers, Zombie Disco Squad, Plastician and Mark Starr to deliver their own take on the track, bringing the work out to brand new dance floors in the process.

The Martin Brothers set the pace with a characteristically heavy house bass line, the twisted “let that booty clap” vocal sample dancing over the driving groove. Zombie Disco Squad lets the buttock-smacking claps take centre stage, while a clever percussion score and perfectly timed ellipsis make for certified ghetto house dance floor material. Dirtybird debutant by way of Croydon, Plastician, focuses on the bass elements of the original, creating a swaying dubstep rhythm where booty claps become glock pops before your very eyes, while Mark Starr opts for a similarly languid groove, without losing sight of Kill Frenzy’s playful genre-splicing.

Make That Booty Clap feat. DJ Funk became an instant milestone in the dirtybird canon and it’s great to see Kill Frenzy’s debut receiving such masterful reworks a year on.
