AMERICANO FEVER



Perhaps the most hyped song of 2010, Yolanda Be Cool & Dcups upbeat bonanza 'We No Speak Americano' looks like it's here to stay. Despite hitting the airwaves quite some time ago, you'd be hard pressed to take a radio aided car journey and NOT hear the track at least once. While we have never been fond of overkill on radio stations, the Fridgejet team are happy to admit that if 'catchyness' had a soundtrack, this would be the title track!  Incorporating elements of jazz, baile funk and all things jumpy, it ticks all the boxes for writing a modern day house track that appeals to the masses.

Not ones to let the hype die, Sweat It Out Records recently teamed up with Spank to run a promotional remix competition on the tune. Spanning a number of months, the competition is still live and will be closing on the 30th of May, with entries expected to be overflowing their inboxes. We've been thrown a number of these audible efforts over the past weeks and thought we'd pass a few on to your faithful readers. First up, we've got a remix from The Surecut Kids. It keeps a pretty similiar intro to the original, but the drop displays all the features you'd expect from the Gold Coast duo. Catchy drums, a gritty bassline and some cool wobbles make it a fun tune that keeps you guessing! Secondly, Sydney DJ and producer Tenzin has reworked the tune into a 3am stomper that could resemble something coming out of the Dada Life camp. It pushes, sucks and smashes your ears and boy, it's a highly creative take on the original version. Last but not least, local producer Wolfie riddles the tune with his minimalistic basslines, tight drums and crisp kicks, giving a tech house orientated take on the tune. I say enjoy!
