If you were like me as a teenager and loved the Vengaboys, you would have had their tracks pumping LOUD. With iconic tracks including 'We Like To Party’, ‘Boom Boom Boom’ and ‘Up and Down’, they were a group that had dancefloors and lounge rooms all over the world jumping. Fast forward to 2020, and we see the Vengaboys return, teaming up with our very own Aussie, Timmy Trumpet, to put a dance music twist on their 11-year-old classic ‘Up and Down’.
I bet you are wondering how does one of the now biggest hardstyle DJs get to collaborate with a Dutch pop group? Well, this is how it all came about.
Having followed Timmy since his Tomorrowland gigs, the pop group were already fans of what Timmy has created, so when the Vengaboys were touring Australia in 2019 they contacted him. The group ended up in his studio in Sydney and together, the crew sat down with him to make a festival version of ‘Up and Down’, and I am so glad that they did.
This version brings to life all of those incredible moments that the original track has and incorporated such a festival dance vibe. It’s a shame that festivals are at a standstill, as this track is one that I can see being played over and over again. If you are looking for a feel-good escape I recommend putting the video on and having a dance around the lounge room as this track will brighten any mood.
