Da Brakes Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) Must say I love this! A great twist on a classic track!http://youtu.be/k6kMZTRs7Tc Edited August 4, 2015 by Da Brakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) I love it too. I love it because it's not a true re-make. It's simply inspired by the classic. The production gives a nod to the original, but it's definitely a whole new sound. Other than a few lines in the intro, it's all new lyrics too. I have a feeling I'd hate it if they tried to simply recreate the original with a similar beat and FP's lyrics. The video certainly doesn't have the "soul" of the original, but it's a nice imitation. I especially like the early 90's fashion. Jazzy's presence grounds the whole thing. On his Facebook he says he "collaborated" with them, but it appears that he just appears in the video. The production and the few scratches on the track don't particularly sound like his, but the title of the official download says "featuring DJ Jazzy Jeff."http://www.very.co.uk/summertimeCut and paste this link for the free download: bit.ly/1IymS0K Edited August 4, 2015 by JumpinJack AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevTastic Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 I dig how the video is basically a complete video re-run of the original. More funny is the blatant non summer look of a UK summer hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 LOL - I felt that it did have a drab look to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevTastic Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 That's normally what a camera filter is for lol. UK weather is probably on our a par with Philly's more or less throughout a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Julie Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 If they wanted a true British summer time, all those people at the bbq should of been huddled under a marquee as it pours down with rain. I thought the the remix was ok, Jeffs bit did just seem to be his original mix haha. It's nice, but I'm never gonna choose to listen to this over the original.

Schnazz Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 I loved that! The video really made the song for me. I generally like Rizzle Kicks, it's great to see them doing this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
