The original version of 'Stay Up Here' is an emotional ride on top of a simple but evocative bassline with neon synths & delicate melodies all swaying infectiously. The sweet, whispered vocals from Miss Bee (who has sung for producers including Needwant's Mario Basanov before now) inject a certain steaminess & the whole track oozes cool.
As well as a dub, one half of PBR Streetgang & something of a man of the moment Bonar Bradbury also offers a remix. His version is sympathetic to the original but features a more degraded, apocalyptic bassline & sharper, more prominent claps. Finally, Golf Channel's nu disco favourites The Rhythm Odyssey also turn in a remix. This version twists & turns & is much more purposeful & electric. Pixelated synths rain down the face of the track & an anthemic piano breakdown really sets the whole thing alight.
Another fine A&R stroke for Southern Fried, this release will surely propel a/jus/ted to the next level.[info from label]
