i remember hearing the original or maybe it was the dj godfather remix a long time ago when i got into detroit bass music. i had known of godfather, assault, diamond d and the usual bunch but the name andrea parker rang to mind something else. trip-hop stuff but it was obvious with some of her later output and her dj-kicks mix that she loved her electro. and so do i.
the original was a collaboration with detroit bass legends godfather & assault who add vocals to the track, however this particular version came to me when i was listening to juno samples. i noticed that there was a boatload of remixes done of "freaky bitches" back in '08. there were a couple of really good ones i quite fancied where the really fucked up ones by ed davane, lcedp and mira calix & oliver coates.
but out of the straight dancefloor ones the clatterbox remix was the best one. it had my attention without even hearing it because i really liked the remix he'd done of friend & doktor kosmos' "career opportunities". clatterbox keeps true to the original but bangs it out somewhat harder but throws in some elements uncommon to the track like moody pad that's hovering in the background
he took away assault & godfather's vocal parts but added his own vocoder and that's always a plus in my book. i love me some robotics, especially in combination of hard synthetic drums and chunky bass. bang!
