Losers - Flush

It’s 1997, sometime between January and the end of the school year and I am on my way home to my parents’ house in the wilds of South Yorkshire. I get home, dump the uniform and go straight to put the telly on. MTV to be more precise, in order to watch the one and only Eddy Temple Morris! At a time in which my musical opinions and styles were still forming, Eddy Temple-Morris had a good hand in introducing me to many fantastic bands. This was a guy who knew his stuff. And he laughed a lot, which I liked. Most importantly of all he made me aware of the mullet. Losers are the combined love child of the aforementioned Mr Temple-Morris and Tom Bellamy, formerly of Cooper Temple Clause and now a current member of White Belt Yellow Tag. Evidently Tom is another talented and very busy bloke. ‘Flush’ is a fantastic and uplifting slice of electro-dance that is the essence of the cool sort of dance music that tends to be batted around with the indie scene, rather than the Ministry of Sound circa 1999 dross that is often mistaken for dance music. ‘Flush’ is more in the Justice, Simian Mobile Disco and new skool arena. Bouncing vocals from Nicola Varley and Rizwan Ahmed give the tune a real street feel that lifts it as a whole. Dan Le Sacs Do-Do remix gives it a gentler touch, shifting it along well. It’s really impressive just how different a bit of expert tinkering can do to a track. The Skism remix is a right kicker of a dubstep remix which just takes it somewhere complete different. The other mixes including the almost Muse gone electro style of the South Central remix and the Sukh Knight remix, both of which add yet more scope. I am really impressed at how excellent these remixes are. Definitely a tune you should be checking in and in whichever form takes your fancy it’s covered.
