When Aaron ‘Fonzerelli’ McClelland debuted back in ’06, he did so in possibly the biggest way. Through Tiesto’s ‘In Search Of Sunrise 5: Los Angeles’ album and the Dutchman’s weekly Clublife radio show, ‘Moonlight Party’ broke significantly, turning it into a European chart hit.
The groove that sits behind it has barely dated a day since, but that hasn’t stopped Fonzerelli teaming up with Kryder to give the track a remodelling.
It bounces back in two flavours, with F & K’s new Extended Mix dropping some knowingly-retro Todd Terry-ish kick ‘n’ hi-hat business before the bass and its pianos take charge. One drop of its “dance till sunrise” vocal hook, and you may be straight back to those more innocent clubbing times.
A nod to the track’s appeal, Kryder and Aaron’s have also fashioned a ‘Fan Favourite OG Mix’, which brings the piano loop right to the forefront of the production. Filters, phasers and all those early Axwell ‘n’ Prydzy-type feels should have the floor “dancing in the moonlight” and “waiting for the sunrise” all over again.
It’s out now on Black Hole Recordings.
