Golden Bug feat. Lou Teti – Play Around (Maxi)
Cat#: Gomma DT 041
Release: 17 February 2012
Your favourite Parisan power boogie-bot Toni Harispuru aka Golden Bug went to Brooklyn, had some burger, drinks and met New York City party guru Lou Teti. They played around in a friend’s homestudio and the result is: Play Around. Flashy tribal drums + a big boogie bass + some Cameo kind of spaced out vocals..
The Play Around single includes remixes by Justin Roberston aka The Deadstock 33s from London and newcomer Tad Wily.
