If there was one thing I didn't expect to see as 2026 enters its last few weeks, it was a new release featuring the wonderful and unmistakeable vocals of the legendary Kim English. Her vocals graced so many classics from the 90s through until her untimely passing in 2019 but I had no idea that there was one more gem, sitting in the loving care of another legend, Maurice Joshua waiting for the right moment to remind us all just what we've been missing. "Boogie Oogie Oogie" is ofcourse a cover of the 1978 disco classic, originally made famous by A Taste Of Honey. Given its' catchy nature there's bound to be a fair amount of singing along whenever this is played along with the obligatory dancing. There are two excellent versions to choose from starting with the exceedingly funky "DJ Spen & Emmaculate Vocal Mix" which retains much of the 70s vibe while the Maurica Joshua House Flavors Mix" is a dubbier affair with booming bass and bounding keys. Notable assists on the project come from Michele Chiavarini on Keys, bass & guitar and Russ Tarley Jnr on percussion.
"Boogie Oogie Oogie" is available now on Traxsource promo with an official release date of 27th November.
