A track that needs no introduction whatsoever; "Stomp" was originally released in 1980 with the legendary Rod Temperton & Quincy Jones in the credits. Quite simply, it's a floor filler that has endured for more than for forty years and is as effective now as it was back then. Brazil's DJ Meme has worked his magic on a several classics over the years, tastefully extending and recreating them with the appropriate level of respect paid to the original compositions. Expect an epic intro plus clever highlighting and augmenting of many of the original elements (the strings and bass receive particular attention). This is the most essential purchase of the week for me and is already lined up to make an appearance in next week's FR radio show. Available on Bandcamp right now!
