when this track was released originally it was a song i liked and i believe i had it on an r&b compilation. it did however leave my conciousness for a large number of years until i was back on my garage kick again. "one night stand" had remixes by sunship, agent x & dubaholics for the uk garage crowd and the two first mentioned was breakbeat and dubaholics did the 4x4 mix.
i'm not keen on the dubaholics remix and i think sunship remix is just decent. those two uses the verses unlike the agent x remix which only uses alesha dixon's rapped elements and the hook. another noted things is that dubaholics was the only one that didn't get a special callout from dixon saying that this is the sunship or agent x on the remix.
the drums and the bass was also another reason i prefered agent x's version over sunships. there is so much punch in those drums and the bassline is wicked. i think this one might have been the peaktime/big room cut compared to sunships as the drops are much bigger. it also uses this keyboardsequence that is supposed to be horns or strings that play in the chord progression of uk garage classic "ripgroove".
