Help finding the name of a (club) song/tune

[slomax]

hi all,

I'm afraid this is going to be super vague. There's a hip hop/club song that i have had in my head for most of the day and i cant for the hell of me find out what it is, and it's doing my head in. It is really very famous and anyone who has been in a club 3+ times in the last 5 years or so would recognise it imediately. It's similar to Superstylin' by groove armada, but a little bit more upbeat and feels free'er (if thats even a word) and has an instantly recognisable intro.

any help would be much apreciated!

thanks all

(i would guess between 1997-2003, but i could be wrong)

I like these questions but that is vague!

1997-2003, but I would have heard it in a club in the last 5 years . . . .

Can't even guess - are there any words to it? Anything?!!

A LOT older than 1997-2003, but could it be this? (Know How - Young MC)

Can't say I've been 'clubbing' for years so dunno if this one is still played, but it has the stripped down vocal, then goes into the bassline/beat in a not too dis-similar way (although it sounds nothing like Superstylin') :-)

The same key is Bomfunk MC's - Freestyler.

Howly fk PH found that song based on that info?

Still. Great tune

It's Bombfunk MC's - Freestyler (as I posted above without seeing the youtube clips) - I have a remix/mashup of it with Tiny Tempahs 'Passout' with it. Goes down a storm...

You're welcome!

The full version has quite a nice, if slightly incongruous, acoustic guitar intro. Love it.
