Pussy 2000
It's Alright
Distinctive
Pussy 2000 are the UK production team who would have been on the UK Music Industry's '10 Most Wanted List' if there was such a thing after a strew of what's become known as 'Accapella Mash Ups'. This included illegally mixing up hits by Daft Punk & Sub Sub onto one record for devastating effect and soon after, this genius mix of 'Rock 'The Casbah' by The Clash & Stirling Void's 80's anthem 'It's Alright'. That was back in late 1999 and it's taken two years for Distinctive to finally put it out as a full release. The track uses the backing guitar riff from The Clash and loops it into a Stardust like arrangement while the 'It's Alright' vocals float lovingly over the top - it's that simple but very effective regardless and getting a very large crowd reaction whenever it's dropped on the decks. Coupled with a very funky animated video this is sure to make inroads to a few of the record buying publics wallets when it gets a full release in the coming weeks.
