as i mentioned in the post about kmc/live element i am a fan of the gossip records production crew and i heard about this one right when it was released. loved this right from the get-go and thought it was a lovely piece of disco house. the main thing that got me hooked on it was the fact that they used vocal samples of a favourite song of mine, annie's "the greatest hit"

"the greatest hit" is quite known for being annie's first big hit and it was produced by tore kroknes (aka erot). erot really knew how to shape tunes and he was quite creative with samples and with the sound in general. on this one he used the bassline from madonna's "everybody".

but much like when kanye used a vocal sample from m.i.a.'s "paper planes" (which samples the clash's "straight to hell") for "swagga like us", the end result of this sample-chain doesn't have the influence from the original track (in this case madonna's song).
what hott 22 did was to borrow two lines and set it to this filtertastic loop which has me confused since i can't identify where they used that from. i was rocking this for most part of '08 and '09 and thinks it deserves play. it's be cool to work it with the longer annie dub or original mix.

oh yeah, i recommend most versions on the digital ep for that annie track. especially the b-side "i will get on" which is also produced by erot and is, i think, based on taana gardner's "heartbeat"
