Conector

Em 2002 saiu uma Mixamg de verão (no verão dos ingleses) com uma coletânea que acabou me marcando muito justamente por estar lá. É um disquinho que eu ouvia bastante quando pegava ônibus e, apesar de metade das faixas não prestar muito, elas combinavam perfeitamente com o clima da época e da viagem.

Uma das mais marcantes é a que abre a coletânea. Reclamona e bizarrinha, “Do You Remember House” é basicamente um mimimi dançante que consegue a proeza de transformar um texto nostálgico e levemente ranzinza em algo divertido e extremamente funky.

Obra da dupla de produtores Josh Milan e Kevin Hedge, que assinaram muita coisa de garage e house sob o codinome Blaze (muitas vezes junto com o vocalista Chris Hebert).
