The Fatback Band

‘Spring Revisited’ is an exciting and unique mix project that explores the musical legacy of legendary New York label Spring Records, with a series of new mixes from top mix artists, using the original masters.

Fatback Band are a disco / funk group who were at the peak of their success in the 1970s, and they were one of Spring Records’ most iconic artists. This is the second release in the series featuring the band’s classic work.

‘Night Fever’ is an electro disco track released in 1976. Keeping the soulful vocal and strings from the original, house legend Kenny Dope beefs up a looped section of the percussion that forms the backbone of his version. He lifts the tempo and creates a DJ friendly version while keeping the improvised feel of the original. This rough and ready remix has the kind of bumping groove that’s infectious on a dancefloor.

On the flip, DJ Spinna gives a new take on the Fatback’s ‘(Hey) I Feel Real Good’.
