Dance music's new diva-in-the-making, Yvonne Brown delivers a sultry performance on this uptempo cover of Jill Scott's 'Gotta Get Up'. Produced by Denver, Colorado's own House music tunesmiths, Juke Joint fellows, DJ Dealer and DJ Sensè have weaved an energy driven 'shake-your-body and sweat' ditty for the dance floor. Also, included here, a mix by the one of dance music’s most sought after DJ/producer/remixers, DJ Spen. He brings a 'funk' that only he and his merry Muthafunkaz can provide.
Side A opens up with Spen's MuthaFunkaz Get You Up Mix. Starting with the standard 4/4 intro that builds into gurgling percussions, snappy organs & bass, intertwined with Irvin Madden's razor sharp guitar set the stage for Yvonne's opening verse. The production has a relentless energy to keep any dance floor 'locked in the groove'. Spen gives the bridge dramatic strokes and the neat spacey solo courtesy of nimble-fingered Gary Hudgins climaxes at the end.
Side B opens with the Juke Joint's Original Mix. It is replete with a dense, meaty kick drum and insistent percussion and a prominent elastic bassline that seems to court Yvonne's gliding intro ad libs. Inventive keyboard sounds, layered sustained strings that support the chorus without overpowering it. The endearing bridge peaks and breaks down to just kick & bass leaving Yvonne to scat, run, and purr in that sexy breathy voice! Mix ends cold. The MuthaFunkaz Dub Work stretches out the intro with Ms. Brown repeating the title on top. The spacey keyboard solo boldly makes an appearance midway until the end. A thumper! The MuthaFunkaz Dubstrumental is available as a digital download only.
