Timmy Vegas - Timmy Vegas ft Kerry Davies & The Taz – Toot Toot
Favouritizm are thrilled to welcome the return of Timmy Vegas to the fold with his very own single for the label ‘Toot Toot’. Armed with a large dose of the usual Vegas humour,’Toot Toot (Beak Beak Mix)’ (…make of that title what you will!) is a play on Donna Summer’s classic, ‘Bad Girls’. Featuring the vocals of Kerry Davies and The Taz, Vegas launches into an infectious Discofied Hi NRG bass hook, surrounded by bubbling synth hooks, dramatic breakdowns and backed with some meaty beat science to decimate the dance floor! Also featured on the package is a remix from 80’s analogue loving synth-pop kids, Vanni & Fav, who deliver what can only be described as an Electronic Glam Rockstomper!
“I love Moroder and Summer and just wanted to offer an option to DJs to play something that sounded like it was from that era, a trip to mix it up a bit” – Timmy Vegas
